I saw a piece on TV where they had recreated the layout of Dealey plaza and the height of the 6th floor window. The 2 shots that scored were basically around 100-150 meters, and the vehicle at the point of the shots was moving directly away from the shooters position, straight line.

I didn't see it as an Expert shot (and I too shot Expert.) The most difficult part was the cycle time of the crap bolt action rifle Oswald was allegedly using.

It is most definitely an expert shot at a moving target.

The aimpoint alone tells me he didnt pull the trigger. He barely quals on timed stationary targets and someone [anyone] wants me to think he could lead a timed target [straight line or not], correct for trigger pull and the obvious lack of breathing discipline involved in using a bolt action rifle in an assasination attempt.

This guy is simply not a "shooter".

I dont quite understand how anyone competent with shooting a rifle could even debate the point. There are no pros in putting forward that Oswald was the operator. He simply cannot shoot. You cant take a guy off the street [basically what he was shooting wise] stick him in a tower and tell him to drop a moving target with three shots and no spotter...he will not be able to do it.

This guy has zero combat shooting experience on top of a Marksman badge but I am to believe that he can properly walk through BRASS F three times while using a bolt action rifle? His whole life is a monument to ADD & zero discipline.

Not passing the "smell elephant dung test".
