    It's a joke. O'Connor and Elmer Keith had a long running debate going in magazines. I've enjoyed articles from both of them.
    I was into 10mm Auto before it sold out and went mainstream, but these days I'm here for the revolver and epidemiology information.

    I have long enjoyed reading O'Connor and Keith. I wonder how much of the feud was real vs fabricated to sell magazines. I would have liked to have hunted with either; but given a choice I would pick Keith over O'Connor any day. ( clan loyalty only goes so far) if I was hunting sheep with the Shah of Iran back in the day I think O'Connor would have been a more cultured choice. But I wouldn't want that anyway. A long horse mounted hunting trip in the Rockies with Elmer Keith would be a trip worth remembering. A close second would to been with to go with when he went to Vietnam to hunt tiger. That's a drinking story. Imagine- I never got a tiger because Charlie kept spooking them; he kept popping VC. Do we we have a favorite gunwriter thread? I need to get off my ass and do more hunting
