Do those speeds seem a bit low? The accuracy was 0.5" if I had not pulled 2 of the shots (break coming this week) worth changing primer or powders? Or should I not GAF about 100fps

Just what I shoot,
Tikka T3 lite, my hunting rifle, federal 215m primer, ADI2217 @69.5gn, 162gn Amax @ average 2840ft/s seated at 2.680" ogive(mag length). This load is my 1/2" or better if I do my part used only for hunting, could be faster but it is enough for me to shoot out to 500 meters.
