Good Friday!

I had a user attempt to use the Hole Wizard to put a M12 Shoulder screw counterbore into a part.  Myself, I've never used the HW for this type of hole.

But the user didn't find M12.  He found M13!  Near as I can tell, there's no such thing as a M13 Shoulder screw.  Not even on McMaster Carr!

I dug around online and couldn't find any readily available data for this type of C'bore.  I'm suspicious all the data is correct for a M12, but someone at SW fat-fingered a 13.

Can anyone else confirm this error in the HW data, and possibly help me out with what the data should be for a M12 shoulder screw counterbore hole??

EDIT:  I'm using 2018 SP3
