Default RE: Plastic versus Aluminum (Shocks for Savage)

Well, the Integy shock shafts are made from aluminum, and the stock ones are steel, so I'd think the steel ones would be stronger because aluminum is softer compared to steel. Thanks for the info. But, the shock shaft bent for a reason. The shock just would not bend by looking at it, so if the shock shaft bent to absorb the impact, would the steel stock shafts break the aluminum shocks or would the steel shock shaft just break?
