Dad 72 getting shoulder replacement advice.

Found out today my dad who is 72 is going to have his shoulder replaced. I know he has had surgery on both already. He is bad about doing the PT after. Any advice for him or me? He has 6 grandkids hopefully being able to do stuff with them will be motivation to do the PT. I can always yell at him. @powdahound76 can come do some KS deer hunting and yell at him too.

Anschutz 1727F AI AT-X

I finally broke down and picked up one of these. So far, it's shooting well and I'm not regretting it...I'm not retiring any of my other rimfires, but I am happy with the way it's performing.

I do need to add a few items to the chassis to help when shooting comps.

For anyone who has one, are you using a thumb shelf? If so, which one?

Also, I've debated picking up the AI Bridge, but I would love some firsthand experience from anyone using one.

The last item I am trying to decide on is a rear bag rider. Is there a preferred model, or should one be used that is made for any other AI?

Thanks in advance!

Do you know of a REALLY low, cantilever mount? (30mm, 0-MOA)

Some time back I bought a Monstrum / Amazon mount to try, proof of concept kind of thing. Better to spend $30 to find out it doesn't work than $200.

When I got it I was actually surprised with the quality. Moderately okay? At least the machining anyway. The screws on the other hand are crap and sort of roughly the right size for the tapped holes. I'm using it in a non traditional way on a rifle with decent recoil, so I have no faith in it holding up. I need zero MOA because I'm actually using it backwards, to set the scope rearward.

So I'm wondering if there's anything out of of GOOD quality, that's equally as low. Anyone know of anything off hand?

A buddy was in Gulf war one and is now in law enforcement.

He has flashbacks whenever someone says "thank you for your service"

He says he always thinks about rubbing one out in a porta potty in Kuwait to a very used and abused magazine when he hears the phrase.

Herters white/red box 243 brass?

Has anyone ever used this brass? It's older Herters white and red box brass that says made in Finland (white box) made in Sweden (red box) Would I be right to assume the white box were made by Sako or Lapua? Are they of high quality? I have the opportunity to pick up 3 virgin boxes and the brass looks decent. He also has 5 boxes of the red box, so Im also assuming thats made by Norma? Which would you grab given the opportunity? Or would you just go with starline or winchester?

I was born in 85' never even heard of Herters...

Reloading Equipment Hornady LNL Auto Charge 1000

I used this for years and years until I went to a RCBS and then FX, but I always kept it around because it was old faithful. I’d say if you’re looking for an auto charge that throws within .1-.2gr every time then this works great. I used it for stuff that didn’t really matter like 357, cheap 308, etc.

Comes with the charge, cord, and factory box.

Firearms CZ Shadow 2 SRO CGW full competition kit - $2000

I put this together around the start of the pandemic lockdown a few years back, and I am ashamed to admit it's only had ~1000rds through it (as that's around the same time I got deep into bolt-guns). This deserves a better home and belongs with someone who'll really use it. This beast is a blast and runs like a watch.

CZ Shadow 2 OR 9x19

Full Cajun Gun Works race trigger (it has everything except for the shortened DA reach, which I didn't need/want). Its trigger is a thing of beauty with a smooth ~5lb DA stroke like a nice revolver and a 1911-like crisp ~2lb SA that's as nice or nicer than any other Shadow variant I've ever handled (and I've handled more than a few nice ones). Short-reset disconnector for super-short trigger-reset and very little take-up in SA (ala 1911).

Brass LOK grips factory cerakoted black.

13lb hammer spring and extended firing pin installed (with other hammer spring weights included), 11lb recoil spring installed (13lb factory also).

Has the "thick" CZ-97-style trigger installed (same as the old 85 Combat trigger without the overtravel screw that always moves and messes you up at the worst time).

Dawson partridge-style plain-black iron sight up front, useful without ever being distracting (new Dawson FO sight included also).

12 mags. Grams springs/followers in the extended mags for reliable 23+1 in the 6 factory nickel mags with Taran Tactical basepads. 6 factory/Mec-Gar mags with Patriot Defence basepads.

Trijicon SRO 5.0 MOA dot.

Shooters Connection competition inner/outer belt with Ben Stoeger BOSS drop and Comp-Tac holster, 5 CR Speed universal/configurable mag holders. The outer belt is size XL and the inner belt is a huge 50 that can be cut down easily (I know I have a smaller ~36 one too somewhere that I'll look for).

All stock parts (minus the standard/stock firing pin, which I misplaced somehow). All misc holster and mag holder hardware.

Spare OEM slide-stop and spare TRS included (it’s recommended to change these out at ~12k rounds, consider it your first change of tires on the house). CHPW plate installed, hard to track down OEM CZ-UB steel SRO/RMR plate included just in case.

IDK how much I have into this, but I know it's a hell of a lot more than I'm asking... so no haggling, thanks.

Be sure your FFL can receive from private party(s), as this has to ship to an FFL. Out-of-state buyers still have to have a private transfer done.

FTF is available in TN in the Nashville area (TN HCP preferred).

$2000 shipped CONUS, firm. Payment via Zelle. DM any questions. No trades (but if you have a Gibson Les Paul Custom in very good condition, we can talk lol). I’m not splitting this stuff up at this point, I want to sell the whole kit as-is thanks.

Won’t pass headspace gauge

Hey guys, I’m using a xl650 and set of LEE 224 Valkyrie factory dies, and I have the sizing/decaping die screwed all the way to the shelf plate and it will not bump the shoulder back at all to where it passes in a headspace gauge.
So there’s no more adjustment in the dye and it won’t go through headspace cage I’ll attach a picture for reference.
am I missing something obvious?

I haven’t annealed them yet, I guess this could be the problem but it would be nice to be able to control the shoulder bump a little more if needed.
