I have Lee and RCBS and one set of Hornady for 9mm.
My 9mm setup is a mix of Lee and Hornady, I like the Hornady seater better than the Lee, but my Lee sizer sizes tighter, and I like the Lee FCD for 9mm. (FCD tends to be a like hate kind of thing)
Never used Redding dies but they are supposed to be nice but more $$
I am happy with my Lee dies for .357/.38.
I am using a Lee powder measure so I am expanding with their die and dropping powder.
Not a big deal but Lee dies come with a shell holder.

Yeah, but it's a Lee shell holder.

I like the 4 die Lee sets on a turret press, each die has a hole to use, I prefer to seat and then crimp, I feel it is easier to get consistent ammo, I still use the auto disk powder drop, I tumble my brass with polish and don't use lube on straight wall brass even 45-70
