Mr. Belin. Bolt action?

Mr. Romack. Yes, sir.

Mr. Belin. You heard those rifle shots, and you think you could shoot your rifle accurately as fast as you heard those shots?

Mr. Romack. I don't, wouldn't think that I would be that good a shot; no, sir; because I shot at an elk four times and I hit him everywhere and missed him one time out of four.

Mr. Belin. How far was it?

Mr. Romack. He was, I would say, 350 to 500 yards away. He was quite a distance.

Mr. Belin. Maybe I should have asked the question this way. Suppose he was 100 yards away or else 50 yards?

Mr. Romack. I would be more accurate with my shooting, I sure would.

Mr. Belin. If he were, say, from 40 to 75 yards away, or not an elk, a person, do you think you could shoot 40 to 75 yards away accurately as quickly as you heard those rifle sounds?

Mr. Romack. I wouldn't say I could; no, sir.
