Congratulations on winning the raffle.
A current reloading manual will be the authoritative source on which primer-standard or magnum- you should use.
For myself, I tend to switch to magnum primers for hunting loads when the powder charge is at or near 60 grains of powder. Anything less than that, I use a standard primer.
What that works out to, in real life, is that cartidges that are based on the 30-06 case, like 270, 280, and 30-06, I'll often use a magnum primer. For a magnum cartidge, I would usually use a magnum primer.
