Once you get through the pain, you'll definitely be able to pull more as your grip will no longer be a limiting factor. The ROM is also slightly decreased compared to mixed grip.
Anyways, haven't checked up on this thread for a while:
Still currently sitting around 162-165lb, and hit a close-grip bench PR of 225x15 yesterday.
Haven't attempted a 315 bench yet since I failed at lockout ~4 months ago, but I definitely feel it's there. One more 5-week training cycle before I go for a (hopefully) new 1RM.
