TAll,
Unless you have bought the 1-14 twist barrel you need to re-think the twist. The 14 twist will limit you to bullets that might not get you to the dance, right out of the gate.

I would suggest a 8 or 9 twist. I have a 7 and can get down to 60 grain bullets. Were I to do er again I would go with an 8 twist which will still stabalize the 80s and get me down to 55s.

I like the 69s, 75 and 80 for 300 plus yards. But I am shooting an AI so my loads will not help you.
