Several things are wrong with that post.
The first being that the shooter is on the same elevation as his target.
Oswald allegedly was 6 floors above.
The second being that the target the shooter is engaging is stationary.
Oswald's was moving
The third being that we have no accurate record of what the shooter's skill level is with a firearm. We see him say that he has fired less than 20 times with a rifle. So be it. How many rounds has he fired those 20 times? What's his natural skill with a rifle?
To me post #140 is a none issue. There is no background of the person's skill level with weapons and for all I know he could be lying about the entire thing.
The MC is not an accurate weapon.
Oswald was a marginal shooter at best.
Post 140 changes none of that.

Singing pigs may also be unaware that re-aquiring a moving target through a scope could actually take a bit more time than using open sights.. -- In particular with a bolt rifle where the target picture is lost while cycling the action.
One would think real shooters would know this from experience.
Also.. -- Did Oswalds scope mounting from Kleins leave open the option of using the rifles original sights?
