I am looking for some guidance on mixing the following hops in a 1060-ish West Coast IPA.  My basic plan was Magnum for bittering and then 1-2 dry hops from a combination of the following. Feel free to suggest otherwise.

Lupomax pellets:
Chinook
El Dorado
Citra
Cascade

Pellets from Hop Heaven:
Willamette
Pekko
Magnum
Saaz
Edelweiss

I was planning to borrow the grain bill from this 2022 NHC Gold medal winner. NELSON! American IPA: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/nelson-american-ipa/

Yeast will be Bry-97 or Verdant IPA.

Thanks!

IMO, none of the HH stuff is appropriate for dry hopping a WCIPA. I'd go for Chinook and either Cascade to stay trad or Citra for a more modern style.

Thanks. I just included the hop heaven ones in case there was some combo I didn’t know about.
