Default EDF wingloading

Hi guys: I'm giving EDF jets a try after many years of glass/foam gliders and both glow and electric sport models. I've used MotoCalc to great advantage for drive system selection. My question for you guys is: What is a "reasonable" wing loading figure for a jet? I'm coming up with numbers in the mid to high 30's (oz/sq ft). Is this a reasonable ratio to fly with assuming that I'm a proficient flyer? Sounds like a shotput to me.....
