Beef stew - meat selection help needed!

I used to always get chuck stew meat and my stews were always fall-apart-melt in your mouth tender. Recently it seems that no matter how long I cook it, it is still somewhat dry. Are they breading leaner cows or what? Just today I purchased some nice chuck stew beef pieces and though they were cut pretty small, looked nicely marbled and I cooked them for almost 3 hours, it is just not the same. HELP!
