I shoot 1 1/8 oz. AA's at 1145 fps. The recoil is minimal and the gun eats them like a free lunch. It shoots as well or better for me than any of my modern guns and the name of one of them starts with a K.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy mine.
I’m in complete agreement with you, except I would say it would be more respectful to shoot the old girl exclusively and leave the K gun in the cabinet. Better yet, sell the modern guns and buy a backup Parker SBT.
