← HistoryWhich outcome arose when early Chinese crossbows experienced decreased accuracy?
A)Higher quality cast iron usage✓
B)Increased bowstring breaking frequency
C)Limb warping reduces tension
D)Decreased trigger mechanism sensitivity
💡 Explanation
The use of higher-quality cast iron occurred, improving dimensional consistency due to a refined grain structure replacing earlier, coarser iron through improved crucible techniques. High quality material improved weapon consistency, therefore higher accuracy resulted rather than issues with sensitivity.
