Bullets are test fired using firearms in controlled conditions to collect ballistic evidence. The fired bullets are then examined for unique markings, such as striations and impressions left by the gun's barrel and firing mechanism. For matching, forensic experts use comparison microscopes to analyze these characteristics and determine if a bullet was fired from a specific firearm. This process is crucial in criminal investigations to link a suspect's weapon to a crime scene.

Is there a way to find exactly which gun fired the bullet if there are several guns and several bullets?

Yes, there is. Each gun leaves different marks on the bullet as it travels down the barrel. It is just a question of test firing each of the guns available into water. Water stops the bullet in a very short distance without deforming the bullet. Then the sample bullet from the water is placed on one side of a comparison microscope and one of the bullets in question is placed on the other side of the microscope. By careful manipulation of the bullets it's possible to look at both of them to see if they match. If they do, question answered. If they don't, check the sample from the water against one of the other unknown bullets. This process is repeated using test bullets from each of the guns and comparing them against all the unknown bullets. Eventually it is possible to tell which weapon fired which bullet(if all the guns that were fired are available for test firing). The process will also tell whether all the weapons fired are accounted for. If there are bullets that don't match any of the test fired bullets then one, or more, gun/s must be missing

What makes the final determination about whether or not two bullets were fired by the same gun?

The final determination about whether two bullets were fired by the same gun is primarily made through ballistic comparison analysis. Forensic experts examine the unique striations and markings on the bullets, which are created by the gun's barrel and firing mechanism. Using comparison microscopes, they can match these individual characteristics to determine if the bullets share a common origin. Additionally, test bullets fired from the suspected firearm can serve as a reference for comparison.

3,000. That is not even close to the amount of bullets fired for every casulty through the Vietnam war.
