There would be no problem using the Rem 5 1/2 Magnum primers in 9mm Luger, as long as you are not loading to maximum pressure already with standard Rem 1 1/2 primers.

You gave no indication of how much Titegroup powder you are using, or whether your bullets are Jacketed, Plated, or Cast lead.

So I can't help you there.

I agree with rcmodel, drop back a little on your powder and you should be fine. Sometimes it's good to use a mag primer to get a cleaner burn.
 
Back off the Titegroup

I'll agree with previous-back off on the charge of TiteGroup-I would not go over the center(Mid- range) of the specs,in your manual. The only other poss. negative to the mag. primers, is the cup is harder. Light fireing pin strikes may cause a FTF. This should NOT be the case with your Glock:)
