Default Has anyone bored the spindle threads and neck out of a FL die?

I have a few Redding Body Dies, that I use occasionally. I would have one in each of the calibers I shoot, if they were available. I think that a FL die could be altered, but the cost of a carbide drill in that size would make it cost prohibitive. I don't know what it would cost to have someone EDM it out, but I don't work for free and don't want anyone working on my stuff and not being fairly compensated for their time and investment in equipment.

Perhaps someone has done something similar and can give me a hint on how they accomplished the task and the degree of difficulty.

I was also thinking that cutting the die off right at the neck to shoulder junction might accomplish the same objective.
