However, the third and last shot did fragment along the cannelure. It blew apart into two major pieces and also left a shower of lead particles. One piece cracked the windshield and the other dented the trim. So the head shot was consistant with a bullet that fragments just like Oswald’s third and last shot and exactly what you would expect from a caliber such as a 5.56.

Hmmm? Let me see now. First we have the so called "magic bullet" shot that did all the things it was purported to have done, only looses three grains from it's original weight and acquires a slightly bent tip in the process and the very next bullet fired, within seconds, from the same rifle and same lot of ammunition DOES fragment and does all of that? Isn't that interesting?

Hitting different material at different speeds. The second bullet finally hit Connelly’s front rib after going through Kennedy and Connelly. The first thing the third bullet hit was the back of Kennedy’s skull at 2000 feet a second.

Buy a rifle and learn to shoot.

Yes, that's right. Here's why:

The third round fired by Oswald ('The kill shot') hit Kennedy in the head and deflected over the head of Gov. Connally, missed the Secret Service man in the front passenger seat and hit the inside of the windshield, thoroughly fragmenting. The second bullet fired by Oswald, the so-called 'Magic Bullet', passed through comparatively softer tissues with the exception of Gov. Connally's wristbone. It barely embedded in his right thigh and was found later at Parkland Hospital amongst the confusion on the gurney that carried Connally into the emergency room.

The lead and copper particles extracted from Kennedy's cranium at the Bethesda autopsy matched the rounds fired by Oswald's rifle to the exclusion of every other round on Earth, based upon research done with a nuclear accelerator focusing on the lead antimony and bismuth mixture of the bullets, the copper jacketing alloy, and evidenced by metallurgic particles from the barrel lands from Carcano serial C2766 remaining in the spent bullets' rifled grooves.
