Well, a .459 Saeco die from Midway is $54, plus cost of opening up die, and I think I could make one for $40.  Old skinflint talking.  Oldwyo

Bullet sizing dies ---
I have had good luck turning them out of hard aluminum.   Polish with som fine steel wool on a bore brush.   One can make fine adjustments on the diameter that way, too.

.459" Lyman at Baco is $30, and could be easily opened up slightly.
