...2.700" may not be safe.
It might not be so much a safety issue (though as UncleN notes it could be), but more
a "...are you into -- or are you out of..." the lands. Sitting at 2.7 might
find you both, and that can get very inconsistant.


postscript: My AR shooting 55grainers loves to have the bullet as much as 10 thou
into the lands -- but the powder charge was worked up against that condition.
