Oil pressure question

I just replaced the oil pressure line due to a leak. I have the Prosport oil pressure gauge. After replacing the line it feels better and no more leaks but the gauge is showing 80 at startup then hangs at 60 whenever i cruise around. It jumps up a little when i push the throttle. At idle it sits at 20. I'm just wondering if this is normal. Also state your normal oil pressure numbers.
 
cold start oil pressure is higher when oil is cold, 80 psi is about right. as oil heats up, it flows better and oil pressure drops, idle sits around 20psi when oil is hot is good as well.
