Redding .308" Heat-Treated Steel Neck Sizing Bushing - 73308: Enhance Your Reloading Precision

Quality and Precision in Sizing

The Redding .308" Heat-Treated Steel Neck Sizing Bushing - 73308 is a testament to precision and durability in reloading. Made from heat-treated steel with a surface hardness of Rc 60-62, it reduces sizing effort and ensures consistent performance.

Range of Sizes for Optimal Fit

Available in sizes from .185_ to .368_ in .001_ increments, this bushing caters to a wide range of reloading needs, allowing you to find the perfect fit for your cartridges.

Methods for Determining the Proper Bushing Size

There are several ways to determine the right bushing size:

  • Measure the neck diameter of several loaded or dummy cartridges with an accurate micrometer, then subtract 0.001_ for the ideal size.
  • Alternatively, measure the neck wall thickness of cartridge cases and add the bullet diameter to calculate the neck diameter of a loaded cartridge, again subtracting 0.001_.
  • For new cases, measure the neck diameter after seating boat-tail bullets, or use a caliper to gauge neck wall thickness, though this may be less precise.

Considerations for Varied Neck Wall Thickness

If the neck wall thickness varies significantly, a smaller bushing than calculated might be necessary, followed by using a size button in the die for final inside neck diameter adjustments.

Conclusion

The Redding .308" Heat-Treated Steel Neck Sizing Bushing - 73308 is an essential tool for reloaders seeking precision and consistency in their bullet seating. Its robust construction and versatile sizing options make it an invaluable addition to any reloader's toolkit.
