It was developed in 1936 as a wildcat but not commercialised till the late 60s early 70s so Thar was probably there at the beginning. (-:

About 1978-ish

@Marty Henry I took it into the Kaimanawas with Peter up the road from you towards the end of its life, and shot a couple. I think there's a pic in his book and a chapter about it. I remember I also shot a local deer with it around the same time for Tracey's birthday bash. It was a great big hind at about 150 yards and I recall it took 2 shots.
