  I see everybody seems to have skipped your second sentence.
  Yes my 65-116 Auto Tube has a rattle, both mounted and unmounted. 
However I would consider it quite subdued.  It doesn't sound like ball
bearings, more like the apreture lever flopping back and forth, and then
only when you shake the camera/tube/lens assy back and forth.
