also have to add some depth and padding behind the firing line.  I
 recall seeing a series of pictures depicting Elmer Keith firing a one-off
 .50 caliber bolt action(?) single shot out in the back country.  The
 first frame showed Elmer taking aim over the top of a car parked along
 the edge of a dirt road.  The next had him more or less erect and the
 barrel pointing upwards a bit.  In the final frame he was pretty much
 across the dirt road and the muzzle was aimed at the clouds.  Pretty
 awesome!  I think that he still had his boots on though.

 Would you mind privately e-mailing me and telling me who the heck Elmer
 Keith was?  I keep reading about "Elmer Keith would have liked x" where
 x is some species of large caliber handgun in magazines and I haven't got
 a clue who he was.
