Advice on adjusting loft of club

Equipment

I’m currently gaming ping g430 irons. There is a loft gap between the W (41*) and my next club is a 50* then 54* of the same set.

I hit the W approx 125ish meters when struck well but struggle to get the 50* past 100.

I’m considering getting it delofted by 2-3 degrees so I have a club that I can hit in that 95-110 distance, rather than buying a 45-46* club of a different set.

I’ve read this will decrease bounce by the same amount.

Does anyone have advice as to whether this is a bad idea and I should just practice shots with the W with a shorter swing? I barely use the 50* in my game at the moment as I will go from the W to 54* depending where I am on the fairway
