Translation: the sniper is using a high velocity rifle which does not leave bullets in a condition which permits ballistic testing.

Think he is using a 243 or a 30.06?

I think you're right but the first thing that crossed my mind was that maybe some nut was out to prove that the original sniper murders could have been carried out with a more "primitive" firearm than one of the terrible "assault" rifles.

Police warned residents not to visit convenience stores alone

If someone is shooting at you from a distance with a rifle, what difference would it make if you are alone or with someone?

Perhaps hoping that one person can return fire after the first guy hit (or at least be an eye-witness)?

Or just cutting in half the odds that you will be shot first?
