"The conclusion indicates that Oswald had the capability to fire three shots with two hits from 4.8 to 5.6 seconds."  Thumb1:

If he was capable of firing three shots with two hits in 4.8 seconds, then three shots with two hits in 8.6 seconds was a piece of cake for him.  :)

Nicely done, though probably not your intent.

Cherry picking that sentence and claiming it proves Ozzie could fire the weapon that fast illustrates to anyone who reads 1 thru 17, and is lucid enough to understand it, the grasping at straw and denial required to support the WC.

sorry I meant where the individual hit a moving target and an oak tree

Huh? What moving target did it hit?

The limousine

The limo was the intended target? Why?
Oh, wait... the 'patsy' thing, right?

The HSCA found that two shots could be fired in 1.6 seconds; but only the first one could be precisely aimed, with the second only pointed.

Now who's to say that pure dumb luck couldn't have been involved.

:D
"precisely aimed"

A misaligned scope, sticky bolt, iron sights zeroed in for 200 yards, and a 2 stage hair trigger.

It couldn't be precisely aimed.

Firing that rifle twice in 1.6 seconds, if it didn't jam, would have given a shooter from 6th floor SE corner TSBD as much chance of hitting JFK in the neck and/or head as if they had taken their time firing from the 2nd floor lunchroom.

Z-313 head shot, heard by many earwitnesses, as a shot about 1 sec after a previous shot fired. It was a rather remarkable shot that took account of JFK head turned about 45 degrees leftward, relative to his limo, leaning leftward and rather close to Jackie Kennedy,  and adjustment for limo slowing from 15mph to almost a stop in only about 2 seconds,and with a vector force of cross wind gust up to 20 mph.

Many earwitnesses were wrong. There wasn't a shot 1 second before the head shot. There were only three shots. Connally was hit by the second shot. Zapruder shows him reacting to being hit almost immediately after emerging from behind the Stemmons Freeway sign.
