Well, that clears up the numbers, thanks. I was looking at the wrong ones. Also the the overspeed marking on the speed tape. I've been going faster than I thought. 
As I said, I've never managed to get the throttle lever into the right hand track other than to cut the engine. I do not have a separate control for feathering the prop, and in other planes that have that I do it manually with the mouse. Never really had any need for reverse thrust on any of the planes that I fly, so removed the button that I used on the throttle for that.
I also got the cabin pressure warning at 28,000 ft. Looked around, but did not see anything that would adjust that, presumably there's something as the plane is rated to 31,000 ft.
From what I read, the maximum speed is 330 KTAS at 28,000 ft and drops to 226 KTAS at 31,000 ft and can get above 290 KTAS in the high teens.
And yes, it's a really easy plane to fly (also very easy and intuitive to program the FMS manually if you are into that kind of thing), very sedate approach speed, much quicker response when changing throttle and steering on approach than the jets, even the Citation CJ4. I like it a lot for journeys that would take too long in the 172.
