Believe I paid around half of that.
Use a barrel lap for the push through die like this guy uses for the neck of his loading die.
Basically it takes a lap and a bit of abrasive

Some fine sandpaper or emery cloth wrapped around something that will fit inside the sizing die should get you 2 thousandths in half an hour using just hand power.
Drill can speed that up a bit but check your size often.
