True. O'Connor was IMO the best gun writer of his time, and for that matter maybe of all time. Though most people connect him to the 270, he used many other cartridges, and wrote about them as well. I really don't see where he was "controversial," or why was "hated," or anything of the like. He was just good at what he did, and that rubs some people the wrong way.
