Can you measure your brass wall thickness? If you have a ball micrometer and take an average of 3 measurements to identify your brass wall width, you can subtract 2xWidth from a caliper measurement of the case to determine your inside diameter.
Size a case, take these measurements, and compare them with your bullet and post them here for us to compare with our brass. We can easily determine if brass or die or even bullet undersized is at fault here this way.
As for the stations, I have a coax press so die swaps are easy but I size & deprime, flare, charge, seat, crimp. I use separate dies for each brass operation and I use redding and get good results but I'd expect good results from any manufacturer for sizing and crimping, seating is where you see the difference imo.
