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.
