The 52" with the black Bear medallion sounds like a '61.  Exp was a designation for expramental and that would be correct timing for  a '61 K Mag.

The Tamerlane could be anything froma '63' through a '67

Pictures needed for exact determination

The most important part of your hunting setup is the broadhead.  The rest is just the delivery system.

The Kmag had a brace height of 7 1/2 to 8 1/2 the Tamerlane would be good at 7 to 8. Put flemish strings on them and you can twist the string to get the best performance higher or lower of those numbers. Do not use fast flight strings as the bows can not handle the shock they produce. Good luck.
