The bullet that killed Lincoln

[LincolnMan]

Speaking of Booth's weapon- if there any documentation that Booth practiced with it? It would seem logical to me that he would have- given his olanned use for it. Somewhere he obtained some knowledge of the weapon. For instance, he had to learn how much powder to use- a very critical element I would think. I woudn't suppose the weapon to be very accurate- even at the close range that Booth fired from- it wasn't a "sure shot."
