If they are put together correctly and properly maintained I have found them to work great. I never damaged a scope or cracked a stock with mine. If the front rest is loose (screw that holds it on) or you do not lock it down I have found it will throw some fliers.
I much prefer shooting with a Bulls bag front rest and a Caldwell rear bag. The Bulls bag grips the forend pretty well and IMO cuts down on some felt recoil.
