Fires the 7.62 mm round. First time I fired it, standing, iron sights, I shot the target through the head three times at 100 yards. Oswald was 265 feet away, far less that 100 yards. Pretty easy shot. 7.62 mm bullet.

How would you adjust your aim point to take into account your 5th floor vantage point?
Obama's health care plan shall be written by a committee whose head says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it, signed by a president who smokes and has no birth certificate, funded by a treasury chief who did not pay his taxes, overseen by a surgeon general who is overweight and financed by a country that is nearly broke. What could possibly go wrong? - buckeroo Well Congratulations! This makes you part of the exclusive, elite Ten Percenter Club! CBS NEWS REPORTS ON THE TEN PERCENTERS: Most Americans still remain suspicious of the lone gunman conclusion of the Warren Commission Report and skeptical that the truth will ever be learned. Only one in 10 Americans believes that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. More than seven times as many think Oswald did not act alone. Did Oswald act alone? Yes 10% No 76% http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/1998/11/20/opinion/main23166.shtml
~ try 2 shots, rapidly, with a bolt action, on a moving target, from the same distance and elevation ... shooting at a stationary target without any stress? it's not the same ... not even close to the same thing as Oswald is reported to have achieved
Ah but how do u hit two moving targets with one bullet that has the trajectory of Mr. Murphy running a marathon while on a bender? Also, said bullet *must* be in pristine condition after its use.
~ all great questions (IMO) ~ but for a debater like this Turtle feller, I try to stick to things I can prove, in person, any day of the week ... no conspiracy thinking required ... hell, I can make a head shot from 500 meters on a good day if it's my rifle properly sited in and the target is just sitten still ... doesn't mean I'm all that good and sure as hell doesn't compare to what Oswald 'allegedly' did ...
300 feet = 100 yards. 265 feet = almost 88 yards. The car was moving 15 miles per hour, and after the first shot, sped off to 25 and 30 mph within the first 500 feet. If the first shot was at 88 yards, and we're talking about a moving car, not to mention the wind coming towards the vehicle at 15 to 20 Mph as per the weather report on that given day, I'd be interested in you making that shot on a moving target. If Carlos Hathcock, the most decorated sniper in the world couldn't have made the shot, I assure you, that you certainly could not.
Better to be hated for what you are, than loved for what you are not.
You are so fulla shit, Turtle. I go to the range with ex-military guys who shoot better than I do, and they have a hard time keeping an SKS on paper at 100 yards. With a Dragunov maybe. But free standing with an SKS, you must shoot a LOT. And with carefully reloaded ammo.
SALUS POPULI SUPREMA LEX There ya go. Some other military top guns set up the situation to perfectly match Dallas and they failed as well. There conclusion was obvious. It didn't happen as the fairy tale went. America had a coup on that day.
"Satan / Cheney in "08" Yeah, but in your usual intellectually dishonest way you neglect to mention that its a puny 7.62 X 39mm, not to be confused with the powerful, accurate, excellent long range 7.62 X 51 sniper cartridge. Your gun is in the same power class as a .30-30 Winchester, which is the lowest end of the center fire rifle cartridge spectrum. The fact that the projectile is .30 cal is irrelevant to its utility as a military weapon. And at 300 yards it has about half the required muzzle energy to be considered a humane deer rifle. (1,000 ft lbs being the minimum acceptable energy at any given range) You are absolutely full of DAWGGY dew dew, you self deluding fool.

Anti-racism is code for white genocide. The call of "equality," is a siren song that can only mean the destruction of all that we cherish as being human. -- Murray Rothbard It is perfectly legitimate to assume that the races are different in their cognitive abilities and in their willpower and accordingly are unequally suited for the task of setting up societies, and that the better races are characterized in particular by their special ability to strengthen social bonds. -- Ludwig von Mises
Let me get this straight.
