Which mechanical consequence results when a repeating crossbow's bronze casting cools unevenly?

💡 Explanation

Uneven cooling induces *differential thermal expansion* in the casting. Because frame misalignment results, therefore reliable bolt feeding becomes compromised, rather than only affecting trigger control or draw weight consistency which are secondary concerns.
