Just curious if Pope Gregory’s papal bull was considered “infallible”?

No, because the subject matter was not faith or morals.

It's not a definitive teaching concerning faith and morals, so the answer is "of course not".

The Gregorian calendar is not perfect, just a lot closer to astronomical truth than the Julian calendar was. A further calendar reform may make sense at some point.
