Multiple shots should mean (at least in my experience) that you get better with each shot fired at the target. Which is exactly what happened. The third shot being the killing head shot. free at 100 yards and the closer he got to 100 yards he should be more accurate.

The speed at which Oswald fired three shots with a bolt-action rifle and kept the scope on target is what impresses me. Most rifle bolts require some force to either open and extract a shell, or feed a round and force it shut, because the spring-loaded firing pin is cocked either on opening or closing. During that time, it is easy to jostle the rifle, throwing off the aim. After the recoil of each shot, the sight picture would have to be reacquired.
