[Shooter 2.5]

The FBI shot Oswald's rifle 60 times. There was nothing mechanically wrong with the rifle. It's accuracy was no different than other rifles of it's era. There's no indication when the scope was misaligned. It could very well have happened when it was hidden between the boxes. There was very little time between the shooting and when Oswald was seen in the breakroom.

So was the rifle Oswald shot capable of the accuracy and timing required to make the target connections the Warren Commission contended that Oswald had made?

That is false, the scope was not "misaligned." It was not attached properly from the beginning and could NOT be properly aligned with shims being attached. Nor is is true the rifle was carelessly tossed aside according to the "evidence" submitted in the Report. It was alledgedly carefully hidden.

Perhaps you can tell me if the rifle was tested for recent fire after it was "found?" Or how accurate a quickly re-assembled dissassembled rifle's sight would be with no opportunity to re-calibrate it? Those who testified in the Warren Commission Report thought it would not be accurate at all.

There was nothing specifically wrong with the rifle but it was a piece of crap and even when working optimally was substandard. None of the experts could duplicate the shots Oswald supposedly made with it in the condition found.
