"None of them, not one, could be made to perform the way Oswald's did."

Not true.

"Pristine bullet my arse."

The billet was not pristine.

I know the billet wasn't pristine, but the bullet was.

When I say pristine, it wasn't shattered, mushroomed, chopped off, etc, the way a bullet should be having been where it was said that bullet went.

It was SLIGHTLY misshapen, like what would happen had the rifle been test fired into a pool. You can still find pictures of it.
