Hmmm... The reason I recommended that is because I think I remember reading somewhere that the "set ip" command does not work on point-to-point interfaces. The outbound interface in your config has a /30 assigned to it so maybe it is seeing it as a p-t-p interface?

Do you have a "less preferred" route via that interface for the destination ip's? If not, I don't think your pbr will work either.
