Yes, you need to iterate through features and transform SRS one by one.
You can also see how it's implemented in the ogr2ogr.cpp, near line 755.

However, I see a few places to optimize in you code:

It's a better idea to not need to instantiate SpatialReference objects
and import SRS from WKT in each and every iteration.
It does decrease performance pretty much.
The 4 lines above should be put just before the loop, so ref and out_ref
is created once.
