Hi everyone!
I´m new in this forum and I´m from Europe.
I´d like to ask you about your experiences with full aluminum chassis, it´s thermal variations, and POI shift. I am divided between a laminated wood stock with aluminum pillars and bedded, and a aluminum chassis for my Bergara B14 Sporter Varmint in .308. Does the aluminum chassis have some expansion or contraction due air temperatures like in hot summer days or in winter extreme cold days? If yes, can that thermal variations cause POI shif and affect the rifle accuracy? I´m from a place where the lowest winter temperatures are about 23ºF and in the summer can reach about 111ºF. I would like to know what are your opinions about this item. Thanks.
