.. I believe the "feud" between the two men was somewhat exaggerated. I think that, down deep, O'Connor admired old Elmer, and he as much as said so in some of his writings. I doubt that Elmer reciprocated however....
Tsquare, I think you are right. My reading is that J O'C could make a little bit of fun of himself, I don't see that in Elmer's writing.(haven't read it all, so may have missed something)
The one thing I did read, was one of Elmer's "friends" (Truman somebody?) trying to instigate, or keep alive a feud, real or imagined. God save all of us from friends like that.

p/s I'm more on the JOC side, although I've never owned a 270. Had a couple of .280s, and I've read "what one will do, the other will do".
