    Redding bushings

    Has anyone got a spare .289 and .290 bushing for redding dies spare and they will part with?
    I have put mine in a safe place and it worked out a bit too safe😆

    Forster bushings work as well.

    Cheers in advance

    Whats the deal with these dies? Are they a neck sizing? I assume the different bushing sizes give different neck tension. What is there to be had/gained by this or is it purely to fit your individual chamber better?

    They can neck size to what ever you want or FL size with a few extra twists of the die.

    How do you decide which bushing you need?
    Is it just using one thats 2thou under your loaded measurement or more trialling with several over a wider range?

    Yes you can but I don't bump till I need it and wind it out a fraction so I am just neck sizing.

    2 thou is normal yes. you can go tighter or loose. I run mine with as little neck tenting as possible and I get away with it do to the action I use.
