I recently acquired a part box of Kynoch.295 “Non-Rusting” batch number 17 P O which is either 17 September 1940 (seems a bit early) or 1966 (seems a bit late to be labelled Non-Rusting rather than Non-Corrosive).

A 1933 SMRC Catalogue offered I.C.I. (Imperial Chemical Industries) .22 Non-Rusting, and the 1940 A&N catalogue offers it across the .22 ICI sporting rimfire cartridges.

Anyone know when Kynoch started to phase in Non-Rusting in their sporting centre-fire range?
