Thinking of building up a bike with Campy group. I've always had Shimano but I'm interested in trying Campy because I think the hoods might be more comfortable.

Yes, I have gotten shims in my Shimano brifters and they're not bad. And they are mounted on a shallow reach bar.

I could just strip my current bike and put on the Ultegra group but I thought maybe this'd be a good chance/excuse to explore Campy hoods and also compact gearing since this bike will be more of a "go" bike versus my Riv Atlantis. (Course for me "go" is a .. ahem.. relative term. Maybe I should say "go .. a bit faster." )

So just thought I'd ping the community out there for thoughts and see what your experiences might be.
