Depends, the virtue us uncapped but will only do around 24 bps. The blackheart is capped at 20 bps. The blackheart is nice because it has tourny settings. Its up to you, but I have the blackheart and I like it.

Virtue is MUCH better compared to blackheart. But get a T-board. Much cheaper and very similar to the Virtue...Or you can wait for the other boards to come out....

I've seen and shot an ION with Virtue, and I must say that with an aftermarket trigger, that thing will rip so hard.
I hate to say it, but its the only ION I have ever liked. |

I'd wait for the Tadao (if they're making one). Tadao>All. But if you have to choose now, I'd get the T-Board. I've never been a fan of Virtue. And please don't get something "just because the pro's use it". It's all about money... They play with whatever their sponsors pay them too... If someones sponsored by SP, then they're going to play with a Shocker, not because they think it's the best gun out there, but because they're sponsored by SP, and are getting payed to advertise their stuff. |
