That's the point I was trying to make, Laz. There are so many opinions of this shooting. How many shots, the direction and host of other theories.

What I was hoping to do is get a sound program and see if I could isolate the gunshots so I could hear how many shots there are. I couldn't do that but I repeated it enough to learn there are two bursts of four shots each. All rounds came from the direction the deceased was aiming. The caliber appears to be fairly small. We use either 5.56 or 7.62. We don't use any other rifle calibers so I'm guessing the 5.56. Our rifles don't come in full auto anymore. They have three burst capability. That means a M249 SAW was used as a best guess. There may have been two shooters firing one burst each or one gunner firing both bursts.

This is my rambling description to ping it to the top of my comments page.
