I start out at max length to function through the mag reliably and test for bolt closure from there, if not into the lands that is where I start load workup, if that puts me into the lands shorten until just touching the lands and start from there or depending on bullet profile set jump may or may not work best.
Many rifles I have loaded for, max mag length does not reach the lands and I do not want to turn a repeater into a single shot just to load a particular bullet or for more case volume.
