Nosler .224 70 gn RDF

Did the search thing and found only one mention of the Nos. 70 gn RDF. Nosler hasn't up dated their online reloading data , so, has anyone 'played" with this bullet ? mainly interested in loads for an AR, thus Mag. length. ??
As a starting point, I'll look at Sierra's service rifle data

i have a working load with H4895.. 24.5 grains. Seating depth at 65K off the lands.. but that is in a bolt rifle that is throated for 90's
 
I am using them in a RRA NM AR for high power competition 200&300yds. I am using 24.8grs of IMR-4895, Winchester brass, Rem 7 1/2 primer, and seated to mag length. They are noticeably better than the 69gr Nosler CC for wind drift.
 
I did not have good results with the 70 rdfs in my AR. My buddy on the other hand has been getting amazing results out of his bolt action with them. I've seen this echoed by others on internet forums. Work great in bolt actions, not so great in ARs.

What's the difference?
