    Why do you thing that the manufacturers and loading manuals differentiate between them?

    Lots of people use small pistol primers in the .22 hornet, both here and in the USA.

    Shrug.

    I wouldn't, preferring to use items that are designed to explode for reloading in the cartridges for which they were designed.

    You and the OP can do what you like.
