My advice- get a Browning BAR in .30-06 with a wood stock, fit a muzzle brake, add a recoil pad and stick to decent 150 grain slugs, and it will be like shooting a .223. Honest.

Yep, +1. But I'd use a 180 gr bullet. And like they said, wear hearing protection. Another possible choice is a Remington Woodsmaster 750 in .35 Whelen - big round knockdown power for .30-06 ish recoil. But I think that the Brownings can come already with a boss muzzle break system, so you wouldn't have to have a gunsmith thread your barrel etc. like you would with the Rem 750.
