I just replaced my Q2XL with the outback. I know going from 38 inches to 31.5 but I have to tell you the thing shots as well as the Q2XL, which I still have and dont think i would ever part with. But as far as quiet, smooth and a tac driver I have no complaints with the outback. Shot my first 3D coarse the other day with it and its everything they say it is.
