Redding dies, Set up, squaring, any different than RCBS?

I have a new set of Redding dies due to be delivered today {Series B, full length & Seating die set)
All my experience with dies have been with RCBS excluding my two Forster Seating dies.
Having never owned or used Redding dies before, I'm assuming you just set them up as you would RCBS?
Any tips about Redding dies would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, [Smile]

All dies set up the same. The tolerances for your Redding dies may be a bit closer than others, meaning that the shoulder in your FL die won't be set back as much as some other dies.

Prepare for a grand experience (you may want to have a cigarette handy for later [Smile] ).

I've used dies from just about everybody, and Reddings are the cream of the crop. You'll be able to feel it as soon as you turn the adjusting screws. It's like their threads are cut to more close tolerances than the other guys, or something.

Setup is like any other die.
