Yes, they are. Small Rifle can be used for Small Pistol, but not the other way around. Large Rifle can be used for Large Pistol, but not the other way around.
If you are asking about the Remington 6.5 rem.mag round,then this cartridge takes large rifle/or large rifle magnum primers.The .223 Remington cartridge takes the small rifle primer.Both of these center fire primers differ in size and cannot be interchanged.The .223 Rem cartridge requires small rifle primers.
The SP and SR primers are same size, but with different cup thickness/hardness and different amount/brisance of priming compound. You will need to be vigilant in working up loads. You can use small rifle primers in place of small pistol, just not the reverse.
Never change components unless a proven manufacturer who publishes reloading data has tested it.
small pistol large pistol magnum pistol small rifle large rifle magnum rifle .50 BMG These are the primers used in all pistol and rifle ammo that is commercially available. Larger, artillery type, ammunition uses much different primers, obviously.
No. They are the wrong diameter, 45 you need large pistol/large rifle sized primer diameter. Also rifle primers are thicker and require a heavier primer strike that some pistols can not deliver. My Springfield XDM only intermittently can set off a small rifle primer when used to load 9mm.
Never change components when reloading.

Small Pistol Primers are used for small caliber pistols, any of the various 9mm calibers such as the .380, the 9mm luger, the 9x18 makarov, the .38 special, the .32 acp, the .25acp etc. and even some larger calibers such as the .40 S&W. Large caliber pistol primers are used in .45 caliber and larger. Still other calibers, such as the .357 Magnum for instance, require primers known as magnum primers.
9mm Parabellum cartridges (9mm Luger) HAVE small pistol primers. For some applications such as submachine guns with a free floating firing pin, a harder primer may be used. However, in most applications, the same primer used in .38 Special would also be used in a 9mm.
There appear to be videos of such on the internet, but I would seriously question the validity of them. Consider that .177 is the size of a standard BB. Pretty small. Outfitters such as Cabelas however sell the Pedersoli 209 Hawk Rifle which is .177 caliber and fires pellets or standard BBs using standard 209 primers. It isn't powder, but might be effective against small rodents at relatively short distances.
I assume you mean the ammo components, i.e. Primer, Small Pistol; Primer, Shotgun. You can get these either from disassembling ammo of the same category (Sm. Pistol, Lg. Pistol, Sm. Rifle, Lg. Rifle, Shotgun, or .50 MG) or you can buy them from various vendors. The Gun Runners have it almost all the time.
