 To Sharp

I have recently started to play again after many (many) years and have joined a local concert band. When using the tuner I find that I am always sharp. Pulling the barrel out about 3/8" helps. Why is the horn (or me) so sharp? It is an older LeBlanc Classic but in good shape. Am I using the wrong mouthpiece? Reed? (M Lurie premium, #3), is my embouchure not strong enough? I am a bit confused and would appreciate the wisdom of those of you who are much better at this than I am.
Thanks.
