New Chain only?

Get the rear wheel off of the ground and rotate it both forward and backward. If you can hear the difference, usually more noise when rotating backward, the sprocket should be replaced. The sound indicates that the teeth are somewhat bent.

You would have to have some really tough sprockets to not be damaged by a chain that has stretched so far that it is out of the adjustment range.
