The Redding .294 Titanium Nitride Neck Sizing Bushing (SKU: 76294) is a precision reloading component engineered to control brass case neck constriction and bullet grip tension in exact .001-inch increments. Designed for precision rifle handloaders, this bushing sizes case necks to a targeted outside diameter without overworking the brass or requiring an expander ball. Built with a heat-treated steel base hardened to Rc 60–62, it features a micro-thin Titanium Nitride (TiN) surface coating that drastically reduces friction, minimises brass galling, and extends the service life of both the cartridge brass and the bushing itself.

Key Features

  • Precise Neck Sizing: Delivers an exact internal sizing diameter of 0.294 inches, allowing handloaders to set consistent bullet grip and neck tension on select rifle brass.
  • Titanium Nitride Coating: Features a low-friction TiN surface treatment over a hand-polished interior to reduce sizing resistance and brass wear.
  • Standard Die Compatibility: Built to standard external dimensions of 1/2" Outer Diameter (O.D.) by 3/8" Length (approx. 12.7 mm × 9.525 mm) for interchangeability across all Redding Bushing-Style Dies (Type S Neck Sizing, Type S Full Length, and Competition Bushing Dies) as well as Wilson-style neck sizing dies.
  • Extended Case Life: Prevents over-sizing and eliminates expander-ball neck stretching, maintaining concentricity and preventing premature case neck splits.

Who is the Redding .294 Titanium Nitride Neck Sizing Bushing for?

  • Precision Rifle Handloaders: Sizing cartridges such as standard-wall 6.5mm (including 6.5 Creedmoor or 6.5x47 Lapua) or neck-turned 7mm brass that require a finished outside neck diameter of 0.294 inches to achieve optimal neck tension and concentricity using this Titanium Nitride Neck Sizing Bushing.

Less suitable for: Standard reloading setups without a dedicated 1/2" outer diameter bushing pocket; handloaders using non-bushing standard full-length sizing dies or neck-sizing dies require fixed-dimension sizing dies or alternative caliber-specific expander assemblies instead.
