Sure would like to know how Time/Life determined via their Zfilm version as early as Monday Nov 26 1963 that the physical location of the 1st shot was 163.65ft(surveyed in by Robert West) from the TSBD base below the snipers nest. This would later turn out to be Z207+ of the extant zfilm.

Incredibly, the next few frames ??? would become damaged.

Survey 1" = 10Ft

Something I've wondered about before though are scopes.  They make a weapon more visible but also much more accurate.  If your wanting to put a shot in the hairline as opposed to the forehead one could be valuable.  

Just wondering if anyone has ever heard of a small, easily concealable snap on scope for something along the lines of the AR 5 or DeLisle?

Shooting from behind the picket fence, a shooter would use the iron sites of his weapon.  Even a trained sniper wouldn't be able to keep the target in the scope's field at that range.  Nicely, the shooter closest to the civilians wouldn't have a scoped rifle and thus would be that much less noticeable.

He might if he knew the car was going to be stopped, Tony.
