What is the criteria.

The criteria is, you use "small pistol primers" in pistol cases that use a small primer. You use "large pistol primers" in pistol cases that use a large primer. (and so on)
When using hard to ignite ball powders in magnum handgun ammo you use a magnum primer, small for the .357 Magnum and large for the 44 Magnum....
When making 454 Casull ammo you use a small rifle primer because it can handle the extremely high pressures generated by that cartridge and because that's what the manuals recommend...
Read and then read some more and you will get the idea...
