Leaked Teams memo reveals rifle, ideological ammo in Charlie Kirk campus shooting

Orem, UT – Conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was fatally shot Wednesday afternoon while speaking at Utah Valley University, and a leaked federal memo appears to shed light on the suspected weapon, ammunition, and potential motives behind the attack. At this time, the leaked FBI teams message has not been verified after being posted online.

The memo states that the gunman fired a single shot from a rooftop near the university before fleeing on foot. Kirk, 31, had been on campus as part of his nationwide “American Comeback Tour.”

The memo appears to have originated from the Denver FBI Field Office. The authenticity of the memo has yet to be confirmed. The memo was released by Steven Crowder, who said his team received it from an ATF official.

A .30-06 bullet is easily capable of killing a large animal at 200 yards. Such bullets have tremendous velocity out of the muzzle, approaching or exceeding 3,000 feet per second. Charlie Kirk had no chance hit in the throat by such a powerful round from a Mauser bolt-action rifle. Charlie must have died within seconds. An AR-15 is a pea-shooter by comparison.

I call BS on this one. Any good shooter knows that if you deform that bullet in any way, you run the risk of having it fly off target.

Much of that has been corroborated via the LEO presser. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Yj5Ft7vZSU

I’d hold my fire on this one...this needs independent verification.

But an AR 10 in .308 would be almost as powerful as the .30-06 of which you speak

The trend is engrave the CASES not the bullets themselves. This way the message is on the spent casings as a political statement. Bullets fragment or mushroom on impact any message would be lost.

I said the very moment I heard about it that it was a tranny f@ggot.

We all knew it was.

We shouldn't put up with cross dressing mentally ill people, or same sex attracted people either.

We used to keep these weirdos in asylums, and we need to resume doing that.

.30-06 and .308 have similar external ballistics. M98 Standard isn’t the most accurate platform for either cartridge... but at only 200 yards...

Hard to think analytically when my mind keeps blanking on pure and cold rage...

This is starting to look more like a lone gunman operation instead of a professional hit. Maybe that’s what the deep state wants us to think.

If true, thee MSM will do their best to bury the story.

That would be like a mouse trying to face down a lion. This story is so big it is impossible for them to run interference. The entire world will know it was a dangerous tranny f@ggot who did this.

It’s interesting that the first of the last two questions as of Charlie Kirk right before he was shot was about how many transgenders have committed mass shootings, then a transgender guy on X let it be known before the event he knew something was going to happen, and now a rifle casing has the word, “transgender,” on it.

Crowder released this before the FBI presser this morning

Some of the details in it were indeed confirmed by the FBI this morning that weren’t previously known

I understand it to mean he engraved on the brass, not the slug.

Scratching the brass will do nothing to how the round flies.

Oregon, Utah... ANTIFA Country. I had two immediate reactions to the murder, which was maybe ANTIFA, but 99% sure it was a homosexual God hated mentally unstable leftist. One percent of me kept saying “Ukraine” is involved. All the attempts on Trump have Ukrainian connections as well as the attack at Trump Tower in Vegas.

Charlie, we will miss you. This morning your name was immoralized in the Sec of War’s 9/11 speech.

You can get a AR8 in 30-06 or better for long distance work you can get one in Remington 7 magnum or go big for 1600+ meter work with a 300 winmag on an AR platform.

No. Running off and ditching the rifle in the woods is not the act of a professional hit man. The shooter was pretty good with a rifle. I’m pretty good with a rifle too….But I’m not professional hit man savy.

Some of these details (eg finding the weapon and tracking the shooter’s trail) were just confirmed in the fbi presser. Working on confirming the rest as well but Crowder has a proven track record in his favor with law enforcement leaks
