effectiveness of squat rack-outs

my squat workout in the gym today wasn't quite what i wished it to be. today i worked my way to putting 335lbs on the bar. last week (my previous highest weight squatted), i squatted 325 for 4 reps. i was thinking i could do 335 for 4, ideally. i only got 2. but the thing is i didn't like them, as they were both probably barely missing parallel and i usually try to go a bit below. the weight just felt really heavy, almost too heavy. after that i bumped the weight to 385. i took it out of the rack and was able to stand about 15 seconds with the weight, in an attempt to get used to heavy weight on my back. is this a good technique to try? any other input or suggestions?

thanks!

I think it will get you used to having the weight on your shoulders while standing, but i doubt it will help much with the rest of the lift.
