70 is just recommended for initial value

*Max-Forwards.*
This header field must be used with any SIP method to limit the number of
proxies or gateways that can forward the request to the next downstream
server. This can also be useful when the client is attempting to trace a
request chain that appears to be failing or looping in mid-chain. The
Max-Forwards value is an integer in the range 0 to 255 indicating the
remaining number of times this request message is allowed to be forwarded.
This count is decremented by each server that forwards the request. The
recommended initial value is 70. This field should be inserted by elements
that can not otherwise guarantee loop detection.
