In my case:
The Redding dies are best for my k31's, RCBS for my 1911's 96/11's
There is a difference in resized cases, so much so that brass run through my redding dies will not fit into the 1911 and 96/11 chambers. Either die will work for the k31 chambers.
If resizing 284 to 7.5x55 (something I used to do, just bought proper headstamped brass after that) for the k31, the Redding dies need alot less force. If resizing down to 1911 or 96/11 chambers, I needed to use the RCBS dies (and ALOT of force--even with sizing wax) to get them down to size.
