I'm 17 benching 250lb right now im 215lbs and im looking to cut down to 175 while increasing my bench to 315, i think i might actually be able to go past 315 with the proper training and protein intake

    Those goals are likely mutually exclusive.

    No way, trust me!! That would take years if it was doable at all. Bench press is very weight sensitive exercise. When I'm 240 I bench about 425 but when I'm 220 it goes way down to about 380.

    Totally unrealistic.

    It'll be difficult to maintain your current BP while losing 40 lbs.
