There is no such thing as an inrush after the rectifier tube. Inrush occurs when you apply a full voltage (or very fast rising one) to say an electrolytic cap.
But the tube warms up for seconds/tens of seconds. There is no insrush.
If you had the selenium rectifier...then there would be some.
There is some inrush with the filaments IF (and only if) fed directly from the AC line or battery without tube rectifier in between.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
