There are no Cons to the 82nd for me. I much prefer it over the Black Ice, but Ihave alwayspreferred Binary Cams. My 82nd is blazing Fast and gives up nothing in shootability to attain that speed. The Black Ice was a nice bow, and I did enjoy shooting it, but....................................
If I were to pick between the 2 for a hunting Bow, for me it would be hands down the Airborne 82nd.
I honestly believe it may end up being a superior Bow to even the Allegiance in my eyes, but time will tell.
