WTR, in my experience, handgun ball powders like H110 and ww 296 do like a magnum primer, ww 231 does not care, look at burn rate, slower burning powders do like the mag primer, in rifle powders like ww 748, does not seem to make a big difference, but really slow burning powders, like you use in magnum rifles, I highly recommend Mag primers, the 1 thing about ball powders is case density, those little spheres compact very well and often have a dead air space above the powder when horizontal if not a heavy load, and that can cause a flash fire, where the spark go's across the top and ignites the whole powder charge at the full length of the cartridge, instead of beginning at the base and making a progressive burn.
As to Federal primers, they are my favorite, expensive, bulky but the best IMHO, except, for the match primers, they a spotty in cold weather as far as ignition, bench resters in cold weather will keep them in an insulated case to keep the cartridges warm until time to shoot.
