You have indeed put time and money into your 16" tomato stake, so... don't throw good money after bad. Economics-wise those are sunk costs you'll never get back. Chalk it up to learning experience. The 200 rounds is somewhere around $100 and your time is more than that added onto it.
For hunting purposes a 16" barrel is plenty, you can get either a group buy barrel, a Faxon, or a Ballistic Advantage barrel. For economy barrels I personally like the BA ones, they shoot the best for me. Best price I've seen for them is on ArmOrAlly .com.
While we're at it I'd also look at your trigger to make sure it is a good one, not simply a milspec 7 lb gritty pull.
It's the holidays so should be some trigger deals out there for you.
Barrel, trigger, optics, there's where your investment should focus. The rest holds it all together.
But as for the BCA? use it in your tomato garden.
