The hangfires and sooting are most likely from the powder not getting up to pressure fast enough when the bullet leaves the case. You could try running a faster powder like Lilgun or Enforcer. Lilgun will most likely give you more velocity. Enforcer, which I believe is the same as Accurate 4100, should get up to pressure faster and hopefully not gain too much velocity, don't know for sure. Maybe even try faster than that.
I would definitely recommend not flaring the mouth, increasing your crimp, and running a hotter primer.
