Quick Load wont have any usable data for that since it seems to need custom calibrating for short, fat cases.
Always work up a load with published start loads or 10% below max, using 1% case capacity increments over a chronograph.
WARNING: QuickLOAD is a computer simulation of centerfire cartridge performance. YOU MUST NEVER just plug in the numbers and use QuickLOADs output for a load recipe. That is foolish and dangerous. There are many reasons why the data QuickLOAD generates may not be safe in YOUR gun. Before loading live ammunition, you should always check with the powder-makers most recent load data. In fact, you should check multiple sources if possible, and consult with individuals who actually load for that cartridge. Sierra Bullets offers free load maps which, in general, are fairly conservative. Even when using manufacturers load data, start 10% low and work up. Differences in brass, primer brand, and seating depth can make huge differences in pressure. Always reload conservatively and always double- and triple-check QuickLOADs output against reliable load data supplied by the powder-makers.
