I got my new lathe running, I would like to purchase a high end bowl gouge, what size

I posted a while ago about my delta dl-40 lathe, the was missing part of the speed controller, I purchased a new speed controller, put it in the box where the factory one was and made this control panel that has on-off to the board, on-off to the motor, forward-reverse and the speed pot. I am pretty happy with it.

I have these 2 benjamins best bowl gouges, I would like to purchase another gouge, I am thinking a bigger one (bigger removes more material right?) I was thinking maybe a thompson 5/8 or similar I would like a recommendation of what size would compliment what I have the best and if there are any better options then the thompson.

what are pros and cons of U vs V gouges?
