Mr. Frazier. No, sir; it was not necessary. The bullet was clean and it was not necessary to change it in any way.
Mr. Eisenberg. There was no blood or similar material on the bullet when you received it?
Mr. Frazier. Not any which would interfere with the examination, no, sir. Now there may have been slight traces which could have been removed just in ordinary handling, but it wasn't necessary to actually clean blood or tissue off of the bullet.
Mr. Eisenberg. Did you examine this exhibit to determine whether it had been fired in Exhibit 139?
Mr. Frazier. Yes, sir.
Mr. Eisenberg. And what was your conclusion?
Mr. Frazier. It was. Exhibit 399 was fired in the rifle 139.
Mr. Eisenberg. That is to the exclusion of all other rifles?
Mr. Frazier. Yes, sir.
Mr. Eisenberg. Can you describe the types of markings which are generated onto a bullet, as opposed to those which are generated onto a cartridge case?
