  Have you checked the various reloading company sites? I'm sure a quick call to Nosler tech support will give you some options. I don't have a current Nosler manual, but my Sierra shows loads in the 43 to 46 grain range for their 150 and 155 bullets.

  Don't lock yourself into one particular powder or bullet. You might have those components on hand, but if the rifle doesn't like 'em, they won't do you a lot of good.

  This is why they print and sell handloading data manuals.
