Resilience of Motors using PID

Hi teams,

We're thinking of using PID to hold our shooter angle using a PG71 gearmotor. Our shooter requires 6Nm of torque to be held up and the PG71 is capable of approximately 22Nm.

Using a PID loop, will the motor draw stall current as it's holding an angle or will it only draw current required to move 6Nm? Is this a reliable way to run the motor?
