Manual choke operation question

My 64 C10 (283 w/ true dual exhaust) basically is running fine, but I have a choke operation question:
When engine is cold, I step on the accelerator, pull out choke almost completely, and it jumps right up. As it warms up, I slide in the choke about 1/2 way, and go. All fine.
However, even after the truck is at operating temp, good and warm, I find that if I completely push in the choke, it will run a bit rougher. If I pull it out about 1/4, it seems to be a bit smoother, yet slightly higher idle when stopped.
Is it OK to operate with the choke about a 1/4 out, all the time?

Thanks for the advice, as always!
