Pointing Bluestone

Has anyone have advice on pointing up bluestone. The stone is 2" thick, thinset on a concrete pad. I have about 1500 sq ft to do and need an efficient way to go about it. I'm thinking of using a grout bag and zipping along but I'm a little worried about the mix and possible shrinkage. Should I fill the whole 2" at once or get it most of the way and finish it up after that sets with a dryer mix? How about the mix, I'm thinking maybe a little extra lime to soften the mix and make it more flexible.
Any advice would be great.
