The little buy sell trade sporting goods shop in Rochester Minnesota has about 10,000? Alcan primers in their sleeves.
I think there were eight dollars per thousand.

I don’t really know anything about them, but I do see Alcan hulls from the 1960s in different places from time to time. Wads too.

Perhaps somebody is looking to load up some Alcan loads from the 60s, and needs a source of primers.

If these primers are the Italian manufactured G57 then there may well be an issue in fit to the primer pocket. Both in Alcan brass hulls and Remington 57 primed hulls, obviously also with current 209 size primer hulls. How do I know??.......yes I have a lot of them !!
