It is a much debated but very common practice to only load 28 rounds in a 30 round mag.

Fully loaded mags are very difficult to seat with the bolt forward. Due to the number of mags I have seen fall out of AR magwells over the years I am a believer in downloading 2 rounds and giving the mag a firm tug after seating to confirm it is fully inserted and locked in place.
