At a glance
The Value Blackout is way more affordable at $80 USD and gives you a much wider curve selection, but the Code Encrypt Pro Stock brings a genuine NHL-spec hybrid kick point and pro-grade construction that serious shooters will notice. If budget and flexibility matter most, the Blackout wins; if you want a pro-stock build and you shoot hard, the Sherwood is worth the premium.
