    Primers for Fiocchi Brass Hulls?

    I have come upon a quantity of Fiocchi brass huls, 12, 16, 20 and 410. The 12's and 16's require an Alcan G57F primer, the 20's and 410's are Berdan. I understand thet Berdan primers are available, somewhat, but what do you use as a replacement for the G57F's? It is my understanding that a 209 primer is too small (diameter) to be retained in the hull, anyone have any ideas? I would like to sell these, and will post them in S&S if there is a way to prime them without reinventing the wheel!

    I have #57 primers and some different sized of Berdan primers. Or one could drill and spot face on lathe to take #57 or #209 primers. For the 20 and .410.
    So I would be interested if they were on S&S.
    Good luck. JS.
