I'd like to know geared up rider weight and what coil each rider has found worked for them.
I'm 190# geared up and that puts me on a blue spring on the SRAM chart, but gives me a hair less than 20% sag.
The red with a 2 or 3 shims (one takes up dead space) gives me correct sag (22%) but by SRAM's chart I'm under-sprung.
As I've just ditched the air spring I can't remember what coil I ran in the past.

don't go soley by the recommend chart. I'm only 135lbs geared up and have a 2012 r2c2 and run the medium red spring and still bottom out on large stunts and use a good amount of travel on regular dh runs.

For your weight the blue spring is better. I am about 88 without gear and the blue spring was fine with an RC.
