[Mage] Weak practical results help

Basically i have this problem.

I am a 10/48/3 spec for raids, with 900 fire damage, 300 critrate and 110 hitrate (hitcapped with ele shammie in group).

According to Vontre's sheet, i should be going over 1k dps.

In reality, 800-900 is my peak.

So i am wondering, how come?

My dps rotation is basically fireball spam with scorch refreshes. I am using quartz, /stopcasting and also use trinkets and combustion early and often, timing them with Heroism and other similar stuffs. I use consumables - usually a flask and food.

But for some reason, even on tank and spank fights with no movement at all, i still fall 200 dps short of theoretical maximum.

Any ideas on why this might be happening?
