Twist for 7mm wsm

So I am ordering a barrel from Shilen and they have a 1-8 and a 1-9 twist. I am thinking of going with the 1-9 but I kind of want to shoot the big 180 grn bullets from Berger.

What twist would you go with?

9 works fine in my 7WSM for the Berger 180s and the Sierra 175s (in both Houston - at sea level and in Las Vegas - at 2,200 alt.)
