Given the build and barrel profile is so light. What should my considerations be when looking for a brake.

1. SRS Ti brake; is the tiny sufficient or should I go bigger to help absorb more recoil given its so light?

2. APA Answer with top ports. While heavier (2.2oz), the top ports may help better control muzzle rise, I am not sure how much downward pressure should be on that thin of a barrel.
