Do you have an end weight in mind? Right now you're definitely looking bigger and haven't put on too much fat which is a good thing. If you don't have a goal weight I'd set one as well as how long you want to bulk for. So let's say you set your goal at 190 in 4 months and you end your bulk if you hit 190 or when the 4 months are up. Doing this helps track progress and keeps you from "spilling over" (getting too fat)

Yeah so I'd recommend keeping up whatever you're doing until 3-4 months out from your contest and then start cutting. You shouldn't need a lot of time for a cutting phase considering you're BF% isn't too high. If anything I'd maybe bump up your calories to 3,300 and throw in one week every 4 weeks where you eat at maintenance. Personally, this works really well for me and increases my weight gains by a lot.
