How to have Snap bin to last 5 minutes?

I want my search to consider a 5 minute timeframe. I have a stats with a bin for a span of 5 minutes but when running it sometimes it is split into two 5 minutes intervals. I want it to only consider 1 interval of 5 minutes. So right now I would snap to say 1:00-1:05 and 1:05-1:10. I would like it to just do something like 1:03-1:08; really whatever time it runs on I want that 5 minute span to be treated as one result set.
