Looking for load info 80 gr JLK in 223

I use Berger VLD's but they are close. My favorite load is 23.9 Varget, CCI BR primer, Lapua brass. These are touching the lands, but not jammed. They run just under 2800 fps. There's another node at 23.2 Varget
 
I had best results with the JLKs in my AR15 service rifle with 1-7.7tw Krieger using Viht N550 with either Rem 7-1/2 or CCI 450 primers. Very good velocity & accuracy. Viht doesn't show any data in my copy of their loading manual for 80gr bullets - not surprising, since their test bbl had a 1-12tw.
