I hope I the attention of well read and/or expierienced people of our hobby.

Would you please tell me why P.O. Ackley is important? What should everyone know, but also what would you like everyone to know?

I know a few technical details, but I would like to know the whole, real, story from the perspective of people who remember it when it happened, and the honest opinions of people more knowledgeable than me.

Thank you

IIRC it was his wildcatting that focused on expanding cartridge case capacity by expanding the shoulder area of the casing, which allowed one to keep the same OAL in an existing chambering for minimal fuss in magazines, affecting the barrel leade, etc.

I know there's countless 'Ackley improved' cartridges and that he more or less single handedly debunked the notion that a shallow case shoulder angle was necessary for accuracy.

Hearing my old semi-fudd Father talk about him and in reading some 60's issues of American Rifleman, etc, Ackley was reknown for taking a 'hot' wildcat improvement of some common cartridge and making it even hotter.

It ruffled some feathers in the custom gun making world because he had a knack for taking other's 'improvements' and improving them further.

I think he was the first to make a .17 or .20 caliber centerfire wildcat, too.
