When you open up your character stats, if you mouse over where it says your current hit rating it will display that value in a % integer.
If I remember correctly 8% hit cap is around 267 hit rating, so you arent that far off.

While you are at the Two-handed weapon hit cap, you can still miss with howling blast and icy touch. The spell hit cap is 17% without talents. Hitting that cap is not important but it does provide you with some benefit for going a bit over the 8% melee mark.
As you get upgrades, you'll want to make sure that equipping your new pieces will not drop you below the 8% mark. Sometimes a new piece of gear will be loads better than your current one, but it will require you to regem/enchant other pieces in order to maintain your hit rating.

Well since these figures only matter for raid bosses, there are other things to consider when trying to become spell hit capped.
8% hit cap will give you 10% spell hit. You get slightly more spell hit per point of hit rating than you do for physical attacks.
You'll likely always get the 1% hit buff from draenei, even if your not draenei. All you need is 1 in your party. The odds you'll get 2 draenei in a 10man raid or 5 in a 25man raid are pretty good.
Also shadow priests and boomkin have an ability they put on bosses to increase chance to hit with spells from all sources by 3%.
Then theres the 3% increased chance to hit with spells from your unholy talent "Virulence".
So 10% base spell hit from 8% physical hit cap + 1% draenei + 3% priest/boomkin debuff + 3% Virulence talent = 17%
So you see, by just getting the 8% 2h'er melee hit cap, and speccing into virulence, you are also spell hit capped.

You should be able to get

fairly easy from doing dailies......and that would free up a lot of +hit on your other gear.

Hit cap is 263, or 8%. 7% for you. Spell cap is 17%, 16% with dranei casters, 13% with virulence, 10% with misery (shadow priest). At 263 hit rating, you should be very close to 10% spell hit.
