Modern AR-15 muzzle brakes come quite close to eliminating the recoil completely, with a combination of the following factors completely eliminating recoil could well be possible
-lighter bullet weight
-more powder
-shorter barrel
-bigger brake
Has anyone tried making a setup like this? Have they succeeded in completely cancelling out the recoil?

This way of reducing recoil doesn't address the bolt swinging back and forth though so there still would be felt recoil of some way or the other but this could be addressed with a lighter weight bolt, using a bolt action gun, or just designing a gun with a system to cancel out the movement of the bolt like the in the case of the AK 107.

But most of these things (outside of the brake and adding powder) would hamstring the performance of the 5.56, so i dint anyone would really try

True, but since we are already able to eliminate 75% of the recoil without affecting the performance at all i'd think that another 25% shouldn't be too difficult.

Have you ever heard of marginal benefit and marginal cost?

My autism doesn't understand those terms, all i know is 100% or nothing.

monolithic copper projectile(.308) coated in nickel(3,500fps) with a brake should be pretty much what you are asking for.

If you want next to nothing for recoil then p90 with a muzzle brake with solid copper rounds, I imagine, could work well...

Otherwise your projectiles will be shit tier in comparison to lead or steel. The rule is if you are using a light for caliber projectile then a larger chamber could do it better...

Forgotten Weapons had a video showcasing an ar15 that had been upgraded over the years by Eugene Stoner himself. He reworked the bolt and buffer IIRC, and in full auto it had little or no muzzle rise. Interesting video

Jim Sullivan, not Stoner.
