Mercury recoil reducers
I had one of these back in the 1980's in my Browning BT-99 trap gun. They were pretty popular at the time. General consensus at the time was that the same weight of lead shot (in a plastic bad with a little epoxy poured in) placed in the bolt hold did pretty much the same thing. The mercury reducer has some baffles in it to help reduce recoil as the mercury tries to go thru it, but about 90% of the effect seems to come from the weight, at least in my experience. They work very, VERY well in reducing felt recoil. They are not a gimmick, are not well known by most folks, and have been used for about as long as they have been making big bore rifles. The ones that I have installed required me to drill from the buttstock...can use 1 big one or several small ones to get the same effect. Some are made to fit the factory buttstock hole depending on the gun. but yes.. .the majority of the effect comes from the extra mass.
