   Tell us how bullets can be matched to shells.    
      
   If you are talking about the makes of the shells and the bullets removed from   
   Tippit's body,   
   the WC offered a perfectly plausible explanation. Both Remmington and   
   Winchesters were    
   used in the shooting. There was a difference in the number of Remmington and   
   Winchesters   
   between the bullets and the shells. One was a 2-2 split and the other was a   
   3-1. It is quite   
   possible that Oswald fired 5 or more shots but only hit Tippit with 4. That   
   would mean he   
   discarded more than 4 shells at the scene but only 4 were found. The 4 that   
   were found were   
   not the same distribution of makes as the bullets. Perfectly plausible. The   
   other possibility   
   which I find much less likely is that Oswald reloaded a shell from one company   
   with a bullet   
   from another. That is something that is more commonly done with rifle ammo   
   which is a bit   
   more expensive and thus a greater incentive to use reloads.
