Muzzle Break is what I would have installed. It will take the recoil out of the gun if it is done properly. The mercury recoil reducers work well but I've not seen one in application on a rifle and in most cases the synthetic stocks on the rifles have no way to accomodate them. A good recoil pad helps a lot. I just did a mecury suppressor and a recoil pad on my wifes Mossberg 500 shotgun and honestly felt recoil was reduced by a good 50% she can shoot a couple hundred rounds of bird shot with no bruise on her shoulder anymore. Using heavier loads for duck/goose hunting is now comparable to the birdshot low brass before I installed the recoil suppression. It ran me right around 100.00 for the parts and I installed them myself. I've used this same system on a few shotguns and it has had the same result on all of them. If you wan't the recoil gone completely and your gun has a wood stock do the mecury suppressor, the recoil pad, and the muzzle break. I can't say it will be like shooting a 22 but you won't be complaining. Otherwise install the muzzle break and the recoil pad if it a synthetic stock.
