Hell, I hit a beer can at 90 yards the first time I ever shot a rifle.

Was the beer can a moving target and did you have sweaty palms and a case of the nerves because you were about to change history?

That’s handgun range for a Marine. 44 yards and 88 yards.

When you learn about rifles, tragectories and ballistics, the grassy knoll lies are just that. Lies.

First shot ever with a rifle.

Kennedy was not moving that fast and the angle was mostly on a tangent away from him, making it a fairly flat shot. Not that difficult
