Hornady Match Grade Bushing .261
The Hornady Match Grade Bushing .261 is a single neck-sizing bushing designed for use with Hornady Match Grade Bushing Dies. The bushing’s inner diameter of .261 inches contacts only the case neck during resizing, leaving the body of the case undisturbed and reducing brass working to a minimum.
Handloaders select a bushing diameter to suit their brass neck thickness, giving precise control over neck tension and allowing them to tailor the fit between loaded round and chamber. Hornady’s Match Grade Bushings are available in .001-inch increments so reloaders can step up or down to find the optimum tension for their rifle and bullet combination.

Used this bushing with my .261 caliber rifle and noticed a significant improvement in consistency. The neck tension is tight and repeatable, which helps with shot grouping. Easy to install and fits perfectly with my existing die set.

Good precision for my handloading needs. The .001-inch increments let me fine-tune the neck tension. Works well with my Match Grade brass and gives consistent results after several reloads.

This bushing is a small but critical part. I adjusted the tension to match my bullet diameter and saw better accuracy in my shots. The manufacturing quality is solid and the fit is smooth.
