Custom Action . In steel or aluminum?

[draluisio]

Hello. I am choosing the pieces to set up a rifle for F-Class and it would like help in the choice of the material of the action.
I have a little of fear to the actions of aluminum but many gunsmiths have been giving preference to set up rifles with action of aluminum.
I still don't have formed opinion, for that it would like help.


Thanks

All of the Aluminum actions, I've seen, have steel inserts where the barrel threads and locking lugs are located.

I assume that with an F-Class rifle you will be shooting 600 to 1K yds.

For long range shooting, many shooters of note like the multi-lug actions. Quadlock/lite, 3 lug Bat, or Barnard.

Check the Palma equipment lists.

OK friends. Thank you very much for the the help. I didn't know that they came with a insert of steel. I will also look at Quadlock, Bat and Barnard.
