For a bulk it seems as if your carbs are on the lower end.  how long have you been bulking for, how much have you gained thus far on the above ratios?

IMO increase carbs and possibly try the following ratios of 50, 30, 20 consisting in this order - C,P,F

then adjust accordingly to what works best for you.  if you are not gainging on your above diet increase calories from carbs and lower the protein a bit.
 
the above spreadsheet has protein grams higher than carb grams but calories wise for some reason the carbs are higher in your overall totals when both macro nutritents containt the same calories per gram.

I have been getting similar advice on lowering the protein intake and raising carbs.
I have not yet tried the above diet. I was on a very loose diet before and did not gain much which is why im making a strict diet now and really researching it.

Thanks alot for  your help!

you did not gain much because you simply were not eating enough.

increase calories and keep track of your weight for about a week.  if you do not fluctuate then increase calories further.

like i said though IMO you need to increase carbs and lower protein.
