If there's some objective reason the grade is wrong -- such as arithmetic -- feel free to go ask.

If you don't know why you got the grade you did, you can go ask for clarification to help you on future assignments, but I would make it very clear that you are asking for clarification, not challenging the grade. Maybe when going through it with you the instructor will decide you didn't get a fair grade, but if you just show up with "I want a better grade" it's not going to go over well.
