Hmmmm. Now things are getting interesting. We're probably approaching the point where Internet diagnosis will be impossible. Can you double check the scope mounts? Did you mount the rings to the upper before tightening them onto the scope?

No they were already on scope
At this point, we're just trying to eliminate variables. Remount the scope by loosening the rings on the scope so that they can move and loosen the rings on the receiver. Then, re-attach the bases directly to the upper receiver. Be sure to push each mount forward in the T slot before tightening. When the rings are tightened to the receiver, now adjust the scope position for eye relief and reticle alignment. Then, tighten the rings on the scope tube.
If this doesn't work, borrow a scope from someone and test accuracy with the new scope. If it improves, get a new scope.
If nothing else fixes it pull off the handguard to test the barrel for movement in the receiver. If you want to at this point, remove and reinstall the barrel nut to spec.
If none of these suggestions work, send it to Integrity Arms.

Thanks everyone thats about what I thought at this point I appreciate all the help and offers for more help
One last thing what about the barrel just needing to be broke in ??
Break in will never improve an 8" group. Additionally, melonited barrels are so hard, that you really can't break them in anyway.
Is this the barrel you're using?

Yes
Yes
Does the barrel have any movement if you grab it by the muzzle and twist it?
