              What is too big on the other pins? If it is the head, just chuck it in a hand drill and run it against a file for a bit...

                    Hmm...If I'm picturing it right, you could use the rcbs small pin with a lee type decapping rod nut? gives the ability to have a little slack if its a little undersized. Either that or you could check diamentions of the oldschool lyman 310 type? Usually find that stuff on ebay.

                    another idea would be if your press takes the standard 7/8-14 dies, you could get a universal decapping die from lee for around $20 and then just use the die you have to size.

                      I have an Echo set and lots of parts. I'll see what might work and send something your way. In a pinch I have used a finish nail...

                          Dillon makes a decapping pin with a head. Try that.
