From the Hodgdon Data Manual No. 25: Winchester 7-111 Large Pistol, 7M-111F Large Pistol Magnum, 6 1/2-116 Small rifle. CCI 209B not listed.
"209B not listed."...............thanks. I seem to remember way back when, there was a thing about reloading shot shell primers???
The CCI "209B" was intended to be used with "ball" powders. It is a little hotter than the standard 209.
"The CCI "209B" was intended to be used with "ball" powders. It is a little hotter than the standard 209."..............but/but/but.............there is NO anvil in these, just the 'cup' and priming compound
Maybe this helps...

"CCI 209B
Large pistol primer without anvil used to reload battery cups of shotgun primers."
