14% is kinda high for only being 180. I would continue to cut till you are 10% then start to bulk again if you wish.

well since it's pretty much summer now.....imho, i would cut up to able to notice where the flaws are minus the fat and where i'd need to focus on when bulking up to put on more muscle during the fall/winter months. Then start cutting again mid-spring (the right way through diet). Layne Norton has a great article on dieting pre and post natural bodybuilding contests that you may want to use as a foundation.
