Sounds like the screws are loose in the forearm where the barrel pivots when you cock it. There should not be any movement when locked.

Any movement will cause inaccuracy..........

Once you cock the rifle, the pivot bolt should be tight enough to hold the barrel in place anywhere between fully opened to fully closed position when gun is standing on butt end.

Is it the very end of the barrel that is moving or is it the whole barrel and receiver?  Try shaking it...

How's it shoot (group)?  Are you using a scope?  Are you mechanically inclined...

There should be a washer between the breach block and the fork on at least one side.  If you take it apart again I'd suggest you polish and then lube it with moly.  Where those two pins meet/lock should also be lubed, and adjust tension to barely hold barrel so it just swings with slight finger pressure.
