I have the same plane, and I fly the same numbers, maybe a little closer to
square in cruise. Just out of curiousity, what are you getting for fuel
burn? I seem to be getting around 14.5 - 15 gph at 10,000 ft during cruise,
75 degrees rich of peak.

My settings are 18" for the pattern, with gear and 10 deg
flaps, and 15" on final. I cruise at 25"/2200, which is OK by the
POH and both quieter and cheaper than a "squarer" figure
of 24"/2300. Climb at 25"/2400. Cruise descent at 23"/2500 which
keeps things just below yellow line. 15" for an ILS final.
