Going to powder coat them. I am going to size them with a Lee push through type sizing die, but need to buy one first. I think I was told the rifle they will be used in the bullets were sized to .459.

You need to verify that - established with a soft (pure) lead slug measured with a micrometer. Anything short of that gives a less than accurate measure. Do this before you order any sizing die.
