Used this bushing for reloading heavy game loads and found the charge consistency excellent. It fits perfectly into my 366 Auto and delivers a reliable 1 3/4 oz of #6 shot every time. No variation between shells, which is crucial for accuracy in field shooting.

Good fit and works well with my existing setup. I switched from a lighter bushing and noticed a significant improvement in shot weight consistency. Only downside is it’s not compatible with steel shot, so I stick to lead for now.

Essential for building magnum field loads. The press runs smoothly with this bushing and the shot distribution is even. I’ve used it for several reloads and haven’t had any issues with inconsistency or jamming.
