Default .260 Rem didn't perform well.

I worked up a load of 40gr of IMR4350 with a 140gr GameKing this past fall. I used the IMR4350 simply b/c I had a full can of it. I didn't really get the accuracy I was hoping for, about a 1.5" @ 100yds,and ran out of time to do any more test loads(it was time to hunt!) Anyhow I came on here a couple years ago and was asking about loads for this round but lost the paper I wrote them down on. If I remember right VARGET was mentioned as being a good powder for the .260. Any help on which way I should go? The 40gr of 4350 was right in the middle load that my manual suggested. Should I work with the 4350 a little more, or try some different powder? This lil gun was tack driver with stock Core-lokts, I just want that same tack-driver with handloads as this is my go-to gun. thanks.
