Absence of tell tale 'follower plate mark' on any recovered bullet cases...

[lookout]

I believe you're asking for something which simply may not be possible -I'm often amazed by what different doctors will say about the same problem but I usually pick the diagnosis I like best!!!- it may just have to come down to compromise, which maybe something you're not too hot on.

Compromise was never in my vocabulary with the job I had. It had to be right or else,as I would hope you'll understand. You can't juggle with a patient's life.

ngb, do you have an opinion on follower plate markings in the context of this old thread?

[lookout]

I don't know about them Roch, but I read somewhere that they weren't all the same. Whether it was the  non-consecutive numbers or a difference in make I wouldn't know. I can't even remember where I'd read it, but there'd been a marked difference in a couple of them.
