Anyone planting a fake bullet at that time (trying to tie it to Oswald’s rifle) would have planted one with a dented nose.

Sam5, I just have to commend you on that excellent observation. Give yourself a gold star. 
That complements quite nicely the observation (by John McAdams, IIRC) that planting the bullet would have been a huge risk--what if all the real bullets had shown up?
[edit: another point occurs to me--what was the contingency plan in case the grassy knoll shooter missed and hit one of the other occupants of the limo, or struck the windshield? How could that possibly have been explained away?]
