Oswald's first shot at pseudo Z105-110 ricocheted offa the signal arm & the brass (copper?) jacket separated from the lead slug, the jacket breaking into two pieces, the remnant slug making a hole in the limo floor, & some of the lead splatter hit jfk on the back of his head.

Oswald's second shot was at Z218, the magic bullet.

Oswald did not fire his one last remaining bullet, & he watched Hickey shoot at least four shots at about Z300-Z312, the last shot hitting jfk in the head at Z313.

    You account for 2 shots being fired from the sniper's nest. So how do we end up with 3 hulls on the floor of the sniper's nest?

Because three shots were fired from the Sniper's Nest. The first, missing-everything, shot (which didn't even hit the traffic signal's mast arm) was fired half-a-second before Zapruder resumed filming at Z-133, the second shot was fired around Z-222, and the third shot was fired at Z-313.

I believe that it is good praktice to keep a fired hull in the chamber during the off season.

Didn't most witnesses say they heard three shots?

A flurry of say four auto AR15 shots at say 400 rpm would take 0.46 seconds which would be difficult to hear properly what with the echoes off fence & concrete.
So, there were at least 6 shots spanning say 11 seconds, plus echoes.

You're wrong.

   Exactly what qualifies as the "off season" for an assassin? You're talking like this rifle was also used to shoot wildlife. Really?
