I think I'd quit wasting bullets on load development, and go kill stuff but I'm like that.........
Build a man a fire, and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life!

I think your pretty close to your sweet spot that every one looks for in there gun. But the only way you'l know is to try it. With safety in mind when ever working on a new load. Let us know how things go with your load as you work on it.
