Barrel Diameter for Threading

I'm going to attach a flash hider, not a brake, to a barrel that is .550 diameter at the muzzle. I'mm doing this by hand and that diameter is a bit too much for me to do by hand with a 1/2X28 die. This is mostly for cosmetic reasons, the rifle is a .224 diameter bore. Which threading size die is best for cutting by hand? Doesn't much matter to me if it's LH or RH, AK type, FAL type. A 5/8X24 threading die is too big. A 9/16X24 seems like the best fit, but I'm wondering if a .224 diameter TAT can be found.
