I've used CCS for plate loads on small signal tubes. I never added a resistor in series with the CCS so can't comment on the result. If you do try it, it will eat into the available B+ (V=I*R). Choke anode loads are very useful when the available B+ is limited. That said: quality chokes aren't cheap. A Lundahl anode choke with an amorphous core will set you back a pretty penny. Two MOSFETs and a couple of resistors will cost less that $5. My best advice is to experiment and try a resistor load, then a CCS and then a choke load if you can afford it.
