Anyway. I went and played around with my die setup.

Per Lees directions, the final adjustment of the die is somewhere between 1/4 and 1/3 of an additional turn clockwise (down) from the point where the die contacts the sheelholder in its highest (raised) position.

In order for me to set my die to get say a plus 2 or 3 on the RCBS precision mic gauge it looks like I only can screw the die in only about 1/8th of a turn beyong the shellholder/die contact point....if even that. Is this something anyone else has seen? I don't think I can see any light between the sheelholder and the die at this point but it is hard to see.
