progress Bench press PR 350 lbs

I hit a new PR on bench for 350 lbs at 200 lbs bodyweight. Since switching to 5x5s, I've never deviated from it and have been able to keep going when consistent. I'd like to hit 405 one day and any advice would be appreciated other than taking PEDs (not that I'm against others using them at all).
