The Redding .366 Heat-Treated Steel Neck Sizing Bushing (MPN: 73366) is a precision reloading component designed to control case neck tension without overworking cartridge brass. Manufactured from hardened, heat-treated carbon steel with a hand-polished interior, it sizes cartridge necks to an exact inside diameter while maintaining concentricity and minimising runout. Measuring a standard 1/2-inch outer diameter by 3/8-inch in length, this bushing interchanges freely across Redding Type S and Competition bushing sizing dies as well as other standard 1/2-inch bushing-compatible reloading dies.

Key Features

  • Precise Neck Tension Control: Sizes the case neck to a specific 0.366-inch inside diameter, eliminating the need for an expander ball pulling through the case mouth and extending brass life.
  • Heat-Treated Steel Construction: Made from hardened steel that is polished to a smooth finish to prevent brass galling during the sizing stroke.
  • Universal Die Interface: Features standard 1/2-inch outer diameter and 3/8-inch length dimensions for cross-compatibility across all Redding bushing-style dies and compatible aftermarket dies.
  • Permanent Size Stamping: Marked with the specific inside diameter size identification for clear tracking in your reloading setup.

Who is the Redding .366 Heat-Treated Steel Neck Sizing Bushing for?

  • Precision rifle reloaders using large-calibre setups — Needs a steel neck sizing bushing with a precise 0.366-inch inside diameter to achieve calculated neck tension on large-calibre brass (such as select .338 Lapua Magnum or .338 Norma Magnum cases) without introducing neck runout.
  • Handloaders utilizing Redding Type S or Competition bushing-style dies — Requires a standard 1/2-inch outer diameter by 3/8-inch length steel neck sizing bushing that drops directly into existing Type S and Competition die bodies to fine-tune neck sizing.

Less suitable for: Handloaders who want to size cartridge necks without applying traditional case neck lubrication; standard heat-treated steel requires wet lubrication to prevent sticking, making a Titanium Nitride (TiN) coated bushing or carbide neck sizing bushing better suited for lube-free sizing.
