Lots of folks have reviewed the bullet fragment/weight issue. I'm not going to rehash it all here. The weight of the allegedly recovered CE 399 (before samples were taken for neutron analysis) is just barely low enough (158.something grains IIRC, out of either 161 or 162 grains) to have contained the particles that were removed from Connally's wrist and thigh. Therein lies the rub: not all the fragments were dug out. Alas, nobody knows exactly how much metal Connally just learned to live with, or how much might have been left in his chest.
