I have a very old looking H&R model 25 bolt action 22. Serial #3539 Does anybody know how I could find out when this rifle was made?

I've got the same model; I was told by a gunsmith they were made roughly the same years herbie1 stated. Great little rifle rifle; got it when I was 10 from my dad, and 39 years later it'll still light matches at 25 yards.
Life was so much simpler when I thought I knew everything...
