Those numbers seem high to me, but it depends on how you do the testing. Engine warm or cold? Throttle open? How many strokes of compression do you give it?

Because there are those variables the most important thing (IMO) is to be consistent so the results are obtained from nearly identical procedures with each cylinder. The numbers are more of a comparison rather than a goal.
