Nope. Lanza killed most, if not all, of the school victims with the .223 before killing himself with one of the two handguns.

In Friday's earliest reports, reporters assumed the shotgun they saw the police remove from the car was the Bushmaster. Remember that these reporters used to think everything was an AK-47; now, every 'scary' firearm will be an AR-15.
