You lay on your back, with strong side knee bent. The pistol is held in one hand with elbow on the ground and the side of the barrel braced against the lower leg.

If you do that with a revolver, you'd better have a heavy saddle leather shield strapped to your thigh or the cylinder gap blast will leave a huge owie like you were flogged. I've seen Creedmoor shooting a revolver with a leg shield (it worked very well) and without the leg shield (not so good - just one shot).
