what kind of gun was charlie kirk shot with

Charlie Kirk was shot with a Mauser 98 bolt-action rifle. This rifle, a widely known hunting rifle often used for larger game, was equipped with a mounted scope and fired a single shot that struck Kirk in the neck. The rifle used a .30-06 caliber round, and authorities found it near the shooting site with one spent cartridge and three live rounds engraved with meme-inspired messages. The shooter fired from about 142 yards away, likely from a rooftop during Kirk's event at Utah Valley University.
