Try a fishing tackle shop, ask to look at trace crimps.

Ta, the nearest to a solution so far. 0.8mm internal bore seems the
smallest they go to. Grinding a lead-in chamfer on the leading edge , and
feeding through a tiny funnel of talcum powder may just work.

Now what to do with the other 49 little crimps. They seem to be brass with
a coating of dull varnish to dull them down for fishing purposes.
