I think the amount of opposite lock depends on when you start applying the opposite lock. You can tell when the rear end is starting to add yaw too quickly (ie about to spin) and if you countersteer immediately you don't have to apply much opposite lock. if you wait until the tail is way out you have to apply huge opposite lock. in either case like others have said before you can feel when the rear end stops adding yaw in response to your steering input. at that point you unwind and bring the steering back to where you want the car to go
