Is 45gr of RL15 too much for 175SMK?

I tried to settle with 43.0 or 43.5gr of RL15 driving 175SMK @ around 2700fps (@12ft).

But from my past test results, 45gr of RL15 driving 175SMK @ 2800ish fps seems to give me good result @ 100yds. (So do 43, but 45 seems to be better)

I don't see any pressure signs tho.

I don't have the luxury to test @ 300yds.

I need to make 150rounds of ammo for the rifle class at the end of May and another 150rounds for the match in July.

[weapon is Rem700PSS, 26" barrel]
