Is it really that hard to reload Berdan primed brass?

Yes, it's really that hard. Sell your brass for scrap and buy new Boxer-primed brass.

No, it isn't that hard to reload Berdan primed stuff. It is slightly more labor intensive than Boxer primers, but there are a couple of easy tricks that make it almost as fast as decapping Boxer stuff. (And NOT the "hydraulic" method.)
What makes it somewhat impractical is that most of the Berdan primed stuff is so cheap as surplus that it doesn't pay to hunt down Berdan primers to reload it.
Where it
does pay off is with some foreign calibres that are not common in the U.S. or are obsolete.
