WFAA-TV said the shooting involved a .227 caliber rifle. Pretty impressive shooting from a 100-year-old lever action rifle.
Shooting 20 people with a rifle that only holds 7 rounds in the magazine.
The only rifle ever chambered in 0.227 I can find is the Savage Hi-Power introduced 1912.
Reporters entirely ignorant in firearms shouldn’t be writing about shootings.

Yup, I found the same information. Just another ignorant “reporter” was My call as well.
But it was a SCARY BLACK tube with handgrips and a huge telescope so it can be used to shoot down the Moon.

Definitely Quigley shots.

you are correct, so they shot them all with a Savage 99 from the early 1900’s?
