[Amps] I like to think there are no stupid questions

I am pretty sure of the answer to this question but I'd hate to find out 
I am wrong the hard way.

I am running a pair of pretty flat 3CX800s - Alpha 86.

Spec on the tube says maximum grid current is 60ma.

So if my Alpha grid current meter says 70ma, that means it's actually 
35ma through each tube, so I'm good?  Am I actually in the okay zone if 
I see 120ma on the grid current meter?

Thanks in advance.
