[INTEREST CHECK] Western RPG: Boot Hill/Aces & Eights as options for system.

I am checking to see what the interest in this setting is.  I am willing to GM it even though I have no experience with either game, though I have tons of RPG experience.  I do not see these advertised on R20 at all.  I am a huge Western fan and can see it as a RPG setting rewarding for the "right" group. So if you are a western fan and would like to RP it, let me know...

Deadlands by Pinnacle or  The Sixth Gun by Pinnacle or  Coyote Trail by Precis Intermedia or  Owl Hoot Trail by Pelgrane Press or  GURPS Old West by Steve Jackson Games or  Dogs in the Vineyard by Lumpley Games or  Weird West RPG by Robertson Games or  Sidewinder: Recoiled by or  Dust Devils by Chimera Creative/Stories You Play or ???
I could certainly be interested. I just started looking into Aces & Eights, and some other systems, myself. 
Only reason I chose those 2 games was bc I have access to the core rulebooks. I'm open to others as long as their accurate to the setting.

The rest have some elements of the fantastical, from Deadland's Hucksters and Steampunk to Owl Hoot Trail's fantasy races set in the Old West. /Matt
Yes a non fantasy or steampunk elements. I looked into Coyote Trail and has good reviews and is very inexpensive. I also like the way Aces & Eights do shooting with the shot clock.
