To echo Ildur's point, a Primal is very different from, say, the Lich King. Without getting too spoilery, think of a Primal as a summoned monster. If the summoner is extremely powerful, then the summon will be; if the summoner is weak, the primal will be comparatively weak. So, when you fight, say, Ifrit, you're really fighting an instance of Ifrit -- an avatar of Ifrit, one might say -- with a variable power level based on the circumstances of the summoning.
I, at least, haven't gotten far enough in the main scenario quest to know why (if it's disclosed at all) Bahamut is so powerful when released from Dalamud, but I have some theories.
