Recoil reduction

[Keyless]

I need to get as much recoil reduction as possible on a rifle. I have a bad shoulder and have sold most all my rifles that had any recoil to speak off . I do have a Remington Sendero in 25 06 and want to reuce the recoil as much as possible . I know that it doesn't have much recoil to most people but with my shoulder I can shoot it but would like less recoil.

 

 I am starting with lighter weight bullets and looked at the recoil reducers that go in the stock . However I have found that the buttpad is glued on and not removable . I was told of the slim mercury one that goes in the forearm but have not checked to see that there is room.

 

 I am looking into having a muzzle brake installed . I have had a pistol ported before but they claim the brake is better for reduction of the recoil.

 

 Any other suggestions ? Pro's and Con's ? Suggested vendor to have the work done ?

Do you reload?   You can drop the rounds down to a power that is comfortable to you and still be sufficient for hunting and shooting at shorter ranges.  

 

The limbsaver goes over the stock and does not mod the gun, they work great.

 

Can you manage it on the other shoulder?

I have a rest and can shoot with it fine. I do like shooting without the rest sometimes and that is when I needed the reduction.

 

I do reload and have ordered some 75 grain bullets for lighter loads. I know bullet weight helps as well as powder charge.

 

I am right handed and have to shoot left handed . The right shoulder is not much better but I can't see out of my right eye enough to shoot with it.  Just call me lucky .

 

I am going to start with what will not be permanant , like the mercury recoil reducer. I am going to take it out of the stck today and see if there is a channel under the barrel .
