← HistoryWhich projectile trajectory change appeared due to early cast iron crossbow trigger developments?
A)Increased bolt rotational divergence
B)Greatly reduced vertical string flutter
C)More consistent elevation angles✓
D)Decreased transverse vibrational modes
💡 Explanation
Consistent triggers allowed repeatable draw release influencing projectile arcs. Therefore more shots landed near intended points on the vertical plane, because the moment of release was predictably timed giving consistent elevation, rather than variations arising formerly.
