Widden Bushings in Redding ?

Liven The Dream

Gold $$ Contributor
I picked up a used Redding Bushing Die. Much to my surprise the Body was the only part Redding !
The Decapping Stem Assembly and Bushing are Widden with parts missing as I have Widden Dies.

Has anyone used Widden Bushings in Redding Dies ?

Thanks,
Don
 
Wilson, Widden, Redding, and RCBS bushings are all interchangeable. There are probably others that do not come to mind.
 
I've had no problem with the Whidden parts going back and forth to Redding in 5.56mm, 6mm, and 7.62mm.
 
I had an issue with a Whidden bushing in a 220 Beggs die made by Hornady. I couldn't get the Whidden bushing to float in the die because the Whidden bushing was slightly longer than the Wilson I typically use. I feel like this is more a problem with the die than the bushing, but this particular combo did not play nice together. Trust but verify.

Good point , will do . I was lucky to find a Stem Assembly at Graff's. This Die is not listed in many Sites.
I called Redding and they gave me the only one showing in stock.
