    Is this acceptable rounding on reps 4 and 5? Or do I need to reset. Weight is 315.

    Nothing unsafe here.

    Two things:

    1. Finish the rep by standing all the way up at the top.
    2. If you get tired of smashing your patella with the bar on the way down - try this: Hinge at the hips first, (not the knees) and delay bending the knees until the bar passes them on the way down. This will put the bar back in the proper position for the next rep as well.
