Lapua 220 Russian flash hole diameter

Can anyone give me the flash hole diameter for the Lapua 220 Russian case? I began decaping cases fired in my 22 PPC today with a Lee Universal decaping die for the first time and realized after the second case that I was having to use undue force to knock out the primer. Figured the decap pin was too large. I measured it's diameter at .0623.

I switched to a Redding Bushing Neck die without the bushing and finished my decaping chore. I will not be making that mistake again.

Do you thing I ruined the two cases with the oversized decaping pin?
 
I believe they are .059......small (.059) and regular? are .0625
Small decapping pins are available. This site has info on this but of course I can't find it.
