Bump.
I don't have QL but Nosler manual says for 150gr starting 59gr and max 63gr. I would start around 60gr and compare your velocity to the data, you should be able to go up to 64 or 65gr watching for pressure. Maybe someone with QL will see this and help you.

For a few guys at work I run their combo and take a picture with my phone.
