How can I find out what camera body type this lens goes to?

I found the lens in a box of my late grandfather's stuff. It is from the 70's I think, but cannot figure out the camera it went to.

Bushnell Automatic 1:3.5 f=200mm No.711849
 
My guess is an M42 screw mount. The CA on the mount suggests Canon. At least I assume it does. I know a P would have meant Pentax, so it seems like a reasonable conclusion ;)

A brief search says that Bushnell ventured into the camera lens business in the 70s (primarily they do binoculars and gun scopes), and made lenses for Konica and Minolta (bayonet) and screw mount lenses for Canon, Pentax, and Nikon.

Did you find any cameras in your grandfather's stuff? Do you or any family members remember him with a camera and what kind it was?
