Not true, the FBI testers couldn't even hit the target using the wonky scope.  Why didn't Oswald sight-in the scope when he was out shooting at leaves, as Marina claimed?

Oswald had a feel for the bolt action, others only had a few minutes to try it
Practice makes perfect

Yer an idiot Crapman....  If you'd handled a Carcano for yourself perhaps you would not appear as such a dumbass.....

Nobody could overcome the cranky stiff opening of the bolt of the rifle ....no matter how much they practiced...
 
Unless the rifled was locked securely in a rifle vise the opening of the bolt pulls the rifle off target every time it is opened to eject a spent shell...

AFAIK:

Dry firing is an excellent way of aquiring the 'feel' needed to operate this particular rifle
The rifle's firing pin somewhat fragile condition limited the time each tester was allowed to dry fire

Get that NYTimes edition of fluff and challenge yourself.
Preacher Ross will help, he is very fond of the same edition and I believe you two will hit it off big.
