Ah nice one @Three O'Three . Maybe you should advise Lee as their 25 to 30 instruction is meaningless otherwise.

I would also advise that it is possible to damage their collet die by using excess force. With one of mine it started to bind internally after a couple of hundred rounds. Where the wedge section goes into the sliding plug the plug had developed an edge that was binding inside the die body. I had to dress the damage off. I doubt the metal quality is that great.
