Looks like your hit is fine - it's near cap and I can attest that being slightly below cap is probably not going to cause you to miss.
In SV spec I use different gloves that take me down to 212 hit (I'm Draenei.) With the agility I gain, according to the spreadsheet, dummy runs, and a couple of raids I do more DPS than with the other set. Using the spreadsheet to add 20 hit to gloves was a theoretical loss. I was surprised, but I'll continue with missing 5-6 Steady Shots over 5-6 bosses.

Never use blue, green, or even purple gems to achieve a socket bonus. You will
always
come out behind unless the bonus is +10 agility which i have yet to see in the game.
It is possible to come out ahead by gemming for a socket bonus, but it needs to be a yellow socket that you can put an orange 10agi/10crit gem in, and the socket bonus needs to be at least +6 agility or +4 agility in some cases for MM.
Also, a bit OT, but you could drop 4 points from the MM tree in your SV spec. Only need 1/2 in Go for the Throat and Improved Stings is pretty weak for SV. Put points into Resourcefulness to lower your BA cooldown.

It depends on the bonus in question. If the bonus for, say, a yellow socket, is +4 agility, then use something to get the bonus.
I think that depends on spec. Agi/Crit w/ the +4 agility bonus is better for MM, but SV still gets more out of 20 agility than 14 agility and 10 crit.
At least that's the case for me.
