Which gun do you prefer in an anti-tank role; the 90mm the Pershing and M36 used or the 17- pounder used on the Firefly?

Always been a sucker for that rounded muzzle brake on the 17lber!

The 90mm. 
The 17pdr has too much muzzle blast, giving away its position with flash and kicking up too much dirt and dust. This also hindered the crews with subsequent firing.
BUT, given a choice i would go for the KwK 43 German 88 mm
