Sounds like it could be a good recipe however I dont know what negative hazing( protein and such) affects the rye might have but this is simply a thought also when milling the rye see if you can adjust the mill at your supplier so as not to get a stuck runoff.that or be prepared to use your paddle to lift the bed

Grist mill adjustment

Odd thing, I went to one of the local suppliers (sadly not my usual), and they had an old coffee mill to grind grain. "Drip" setting was for most grains, but Rye, Victory, and a few others were supposed to be done on "Fine". I don't quite get it, but it did grind relatively fine compared to the usual grist I get. Will leave a note if there are any mash stickings... considering this is a partial mash (teabagging specialtys & extract for sugar) this shouldn't be a problem >:D.
