RCBS .257 Inch Steel Neck Sizing Bushing
The RCBS .257 inch steel neck bushing is a self-centering, changeable bushing for MatchMaster reloading dies and Gold Medal Match series reloading dies.
It sets neck tension so the case neck is worked less, which RCBS says prolongs case life. RCBS says those results depend on high-end brass with consistent neck thickness.
One sizing method is to measure the loaded neck and subtract .002 inch to .003 inch, leaving about .001 inch of spring-back. The bushing is made in the USA.

Product Overview
The bushing is the interchangeable neck insert in a bushing sizing die. Changing the diameter changes how far the neck is squeezed and how tightly the seated bullet is held.
With a loaded cartridge, measure the outside neck and subtract .002 inch to .003 inch. That leaves about .001 inch for the brass to spring back. With unloaded brass, measure neck-wall thickness, multiply by 2, add the bullet diameter, and subtract .001 inch. RCBS suggests keeping bushings one to two sizes above and below the target diameter.
