I have a 75 shadow custom target I got for IDPA, then later picked up a "used" sp01 shadow (maybe 50 rounds) at a local gun shop to have as a back up, or use the 75 as a back up after I worked up the SP01. I like the 75 better as well. I don't notice a huge difference when shooting 130 pf ammo between the two when it comes to recoil, but the 75 seems to handle better for me. I'll be shooting it at WA state and maybe WI state this year - but then I'll stick with revolvers for the next year.....If I can manage to keep the CZs in the safe.
