If those are internal flue temps, then, yes, everything seems okay to me. You could probably close the air down further.
My probe cruises at 600 to 700 once things are Seattled in and dialed down 875 is a little high to me i may be wrong though. I do see around 875 on startup and reload though.
My probe is pretty low, but normal temps for my set-up, is a little under stove top (once settled).
Its higher on reloads (as stated above).

The flue temp sounds high. Normally it runs lower. Our Castine ran about the same or up to 150F lower in the flue than the stovetop. Close the air all the way and see how it works.
What's the chimney height?
