Got to be carful talking magazines with hunting rifles, typically a 30-06 bolt action rifle will allow for 3-5 rounds depending on if the magazine is internal or external, if it is external, you very rarely will ever see one with over 5 rounds per magazine.

So it is still in the realm of possibilities, especially since ammo recovered from the gun had pro trans writing on it (fact) that the shooter was killing Kirk because he disagreed with Kirk opinion

It’s banned but that doesn’t stop people from buying them illegally

No clue. I’m assuming he used steel core rounds, which is what most hunting vendors would recommend to someone. They come in 125 all the way up to 200 grain that I’ve seen.

the only sources that reported this “pro trans messaging” are the telegraph, the independent, and new york post. very untrustworthy sites among those, only one of them included what they believed was written on there and the phrase is “you cant take us all out” a common anti fascist phrase. please dont spread misinformation broseph i hate having to give the new york post my clicks

CBS also stated “pro trans” now what that means I don’t know but they did say it

because it has recently been used by the trans community among others who believe they are being fascistly oppressed (hence the use of the anti fascist slogan) but it is not tied to transness at all
