They don't cost a lot and it will be like handling the real round.

Just my opine!

Those full sized ones are neat but will not fit my display case. They need to be about 1/2 length.

Fill the primer pocket with RTV silicone, leaving it a little high. When it's cured, trim it flush with the base of the case and you're good to go.
