Is there any erosion in the throat?

You can visually see throat erosion most times. It will appear as wear on the commencement of rifling as it begins just past the chamber.....
It could be your scope.. have you tried it with a scope you know works...
A bulge in the barrel close to the muzzle will also cause big groups....
If you are getting 10 inch groups at 100 yards take it to a gunsmith for a professional opinion.

Thanks for the input
Any idea how many rounds are down the bore? Have you cleaned the snot out of it and then again? Maybe your barrel does not like to be floated. Wedge a business card or similar under the barrel near the end of the stock to create a temporary pressure point or pillar and shoot again. If your group tightens up then get it pillar bedded.
Also i presume there is no muzzle damage?
