Those max temps sound awfully low. My natural gas grille easily gets up to 600-650F if I crank it up all the way (which you would never do for steak or virtually any other foods).

Regardless, for steaks I either use a more moderate heat level (450-500) around 4mins/side to get medium rare or use the combined sear+broil method mentioned above; or for thin cuts just seared in a cast iron skillet for ~1.5mins/side at very high heat.
