Carcano Rifles
#3
I hope this clears up any misunderstanding about Carcano and Mannlicher-Schoenauer rifles, and I apologize for not telling the forum about the uniqueness of the 6.5 Mannlicher-Schoenauer rifle with its .266" groove diameter; almost as unique as the Carcano with its .268" groove diameter. As I said, I felt there was enough data for you to digest without bringing a third rifle into the discussion.
Mr. HILL. The right rear portion of his head was missing. It was lying in the rear seat of the car. His brain was exposed. There was blood and bits of brain all over the entire rear portion of the car. Mrs. Kennedy was completely covered with blood. There was so much blood you could not tell if there had been any other wound or not, except for the one large gaping wound in the right rear portion of the head.
