Like you this is primarily a hunting gun so recoil isn't that much of a limiting factor. A good brake can help but sure sting the ears. I think adding an adjustable gas block has helped settle my gun down. Even being light it shoots smooth and doesn't try to climb on the shot.
I'm willing to live with the thump as long as I'm not worn out by the end of the week from carrying.
Where did you find a carbon A1 stock? That sounds like what I've been looking for.

if this caliber can be handable in a RARR at 5.5 pounds (sans optic) - putting it in a lightweight ar should be gravy.
just my 0.02 USD

Bear Creek 16” barrel with their brand flash hider.
Aero XL upper receiver.
Delta Team 12” carbon fiber forearm.
Lancer carbon fiber A1 length stock with A2 extension.
PSA lower with Rock River NM 2 stage trigger.
