This is a link to a thread on this site where 6 members have problems with the QAD rest............7 considering Muzzyman had his break on him shortly after. You will also notice that the picture of the rest on the front page of the QAD site shows the rest covered in felt/moleskin.........obviously there are noise issues with this rest also or the company would not feel the need to ensconce the thing in velvet.
Now I am sure I could look and find threads full of guys griping about WB's too..............the point is that EVERY rest has good and bad points.
When taking the whole picture into consideration I believe the WB has more to offer as a hunting rest.
Thousands of animals of all kinds fall to the WB year after year.........it is probably the best selling hunting rest of all time (just a guess).....tournaments are won in Vegas with it.........our very own dukemichaels even manages to kill some pretty darn big bucks with it (damn deer nerds [8D]). It's a great hunting rest.
