Best bit for engraving

I have started engraving catch all trays that have made on my XL. I used a 60 degree bit to do that last engraving and was wondering if a 1/16 or 1/8 ball nose endmill would do a better job than the v bit? Looking for ideas on what you guys have used.

What software are you using for these, Stephen? Vcarve?

I’ve been using Vectric Aspire for my projects mostly, some CC, and been playing around with F-engrave.
