Why do you want it just shy of the lands ?
What difference is it going to make and to what ?

We aren't talking tack holers here.

I am genuinely interested to know.

Everyone to their own, but I don't like the chance of getting a bullet stuck in the rifling in any big bore, if ejecting a loaded round. Had it happen with a .30-06 which I used to load just touching the lands. Not again. Especially when in a big bore and if hunting elephant or buffalo or similar, would rather the rounds cycle with less chance of a mishap.
