I bought a 4 Piece Lee Die set for my Marlin 1894 in 44 Magnum. The die set says .44 Special in big letters, then .44 Magnum in little letters below it. Should I have bought a Die set for the .44 Magnum specifically, or is it all the same?

Same, same. You just need to adjust the flare and seating/crimping dies when going from Special to Mags. Will work fine for both.

not sure about Lee,but one mfgr. includes a spacer washer so you don't have to readjust the dies,just add or remove the spacer underneath the lockring.
I think it's RCBS,but maybe Lee has the same thing going?

The Lees do not include a spacer.
