Same here. Finally had a new shoulder put in.Hope that helps in 2018
I feel for you, after getting blown out of my truck 4th tour in Iraq, my left shoulder got a makeover, but thankfully I am right-handed. I can't take heavy kicking rifles anymore but I wish to use them for hunting. Between the brakes and the mercury reducers, recoil is tamed enough that I am not worried about busting my chest open again.
