Our experience from last year, make sure you F term undershoots the desired speed, as opposed to overshoots the desired speed. When this is true, the srx is rock solid and smooth. I would not try to compensate the F term higher after the tune. I would tune with a full battery, make the F slightly under the target, and let the PID do the work. It was a beautiful thing last year on our shooters.
The other thing to watch for, is if you are going to let the shooter wheels run down, put them in %vbuss mode, or you will pid them to 0, which will make them stop fast and with a lot of heat for no good reason.
