What we know about the weapon: The rifle was a Ruger SFAR, chambered for high-powered .308 ammunition, the sources said. The .308 round is favored by military snipers firing at long distances and big game hunters. It's larger and more powerful than the regular ammunition carried in the rifles of soldiers and SWAT teams. One of the challenges in identifying victims at the two crime scenes from Wednesday's mass shooting was nearly all the victims were shot in the head, rendering some of them unrecognizable, a law enforcement source told CNN. The sources say the weapon found inside Card’s 2013 white Subaru Outback appears to be the same one fired by the gunman at the bowling alley and a local bar, though a ballistics match has not been confirmed. The weapon will be processed by the FBI and ATF for fingerprints and DNA, and then run through laboratory testing to determine if the bullets and shell casings found at the scene match. Sources tell CNN Card also bought a Beretta 92-F 9mm semi-automatic pistol, along with the rifle, in the same July purchase. |

A likely conclusion. All the stuff about evading authorities for this long without any sightings sounded very unlikely.

CNN:
Robert Card, the suspect in the Lewiston, Maine, shooting rampage, is dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, multiple sources tell CNN. |

Burn in hell you rat bastard. Enjoy that eternal feeling of your skin melting

I wish to God he'd skipped right to the suicide versus harming others first.

I have read every post in this thread since it began. Thanks to the OP for keeping the title clean and updated. May the families begin to properly grieve and bury their dead. I will not repeat the shooter's name because he does not deserve the recognition. But, I am glad he is dead even though it was the easy way out for what he did to those people, who were out enjoying an evening with friends and family. People such as the shooter do not represent me as a human being nor as a gun owner who believes in the United States and the Constitution. That is all.

Good that hesw dead
Now we can get back to Jews bombing the shit out of Gaza |

One more thing I'm curious about, now;
If they release the Coroner's report of his estimated time of death. Curious if it's similar to the Laundrie case, where they were searching for quite a bit after the guy had already offed himself. |

"High powered .308" .308 is intermediate not high power, correct? No. Intermediate calibers are things like 5.56 and 7.62x39. Military select-fire rifles in those are called Assault Rifles. 7.62x51, .303, 30-06 etc. are considered full calibers = Battle Rifle |

The shitbag drove a fuel truck. He wasn’t some tier 1 badass. If anything he will become the poster child for red flag laws.

The recycling center he used to work at and killed himself near is less than a mile from the boat ramp where they found his car.

Should've just killed himself to begin with. Didn't need to take anyone with him. Prick.
I look forward to forgetting his name |

I wish these motherfuckers would skip the part where they murder innocents and instead just wander into the woods and eat their pistol.

I think this fucker really did it in an act of "revenge". Not just a random psychotic break.
Cocksucker. Whatever they were saying about him that pissed him off was probably spot on. |

So now the push will be against .308 and "sniper" weapons. The Left won't let this go.
