I have a nice purpleheart hunter. They made the 62" purpleheart hunter around 1995-1996. I like it a lot.

Your Sharpshooter was made in the mid/late 1950's.  The stamped number is the draw weight.

I bought my first DH Super Diablo in '71 or '72 new.  I traded it in the late 70s for a Colt revolver and bought a '73 version in 2009.  I'd like a 60s Hunter though.
