The conversation turns technical as Andrew Wilson dismantles the argument that the shooting couldn't have been a .30-06 because the bullet didn't exit. Wilson has researched US Army manuals from World War I through Vietnam — manuals that extensively document .30-06 entry wounds across three major wars. He explains that the 150-grain Core-Lok soft-tip round used by alleged shooter Tyler Robinson is designed to expand on impact, dissipating energy extremely rapidly. Unlike full metal jacket military rounds designed for penetration, this hunting round will often fragment into shards that scatter through the chest cavity — consistent with reports of trauma found in Kirk's chest during the autopsy. Wilson adds Martin Luther King as a historical precedent: a .30-06 through the jaw that stopped inside the body, demonstrating the round's documented tendency not to pass through when it hits bone. He contrasts this with the microphone-bomb theory, which he says fails on every physical ground: no smoke, no ignition marks, mic on the wrong side of the wound.
