Needing a new barrel?

Needing a new barrel? was created by BigMax
The last year I have not taken my 10 out to shoot very much but have always put quality ammo through it. I started out by using Moly coated Black Hills 168's that I had purchased through Armalite six years ago. I went through approx. 150 rounds over the years. Recently when I took it out I set targets at 100 yards and had hits all over the page. They seemed random and I could not get the rifle to sight in to anywhere remotely close.

I am concerned that I may have not set up the rifle correctly or possibly that the barrel is worn out or damaged in some way. I have always cleaned it with care like I have with my other rifles.

Where should I start to remedy this?

Thanks

Did you check your scope to see if you have any loose screws?

Years ago I added a JP Rifles free float handguard and thought that I might have not tightened the barrel down correctly. It was tight. That was the last time that I checked anything. I'll go back at it again.
