Hi Grant, As a potential fields geophysicist myself, I often do all my processing using GMT or Mirone,both of which can be used to compute derivatives via grdfft, including directional and differential RTP (for your mag). GMT can work with a number of data formats but primarily netCDF; Mirone has a few more import options for grids.
Getting grids into QGIS is either via GeoTIFF or using a grid format that works between GMT and QGIS, which is for 2.10 at least, the older "classic" GMT grid format. I would certainly suggest working with GMT ( http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu/ ).
