What is a super clean Winchester 320 worth?

I found one that is just near perfect and wonder what they run and how do they shoot. Any money spent here is taking from my CZ funds. I am for spreading the wealth if it makes sense.

Thanks in advance,

I passed one at a gunshow a year ago at 225. By the time I came to my senses and went back it was gone. Magazines are spendy.
I passed on one at $300 a few years back and wish I could change my mind now.

One of the problems with the magazines is that they also work in the Kimber 82 repeaters:

The boxes for the five round and ten round mags are identical, not marked by the factory. Found four at a gun show a few years back and snapped them up.

I've since found some Kimber mags so now I need a 320 to go with my Winchester mags. (Not for sale, BTW).

My 320 is a bit over half inch for 5 shot groups at 50 yards, with Simmons 3-9 variable as I recall. Have never tried multiple ammos in it, just Wolf Match, CCI std and prob WW Super X HP. It does shoot better than my 69A, but perhaps not better than recent 72A, which likes CCI std.

They are a well made rifle and I like mine. Found it under $200 over 10 years ago with no mag, and LGS did not want to chase a mag. A lucky day for me. And found mag easily if not cheaply.

Good luck. Remember, such a purchase is just a conversion of assets, not a throwaway! (What I tell myself.)

Regards,

Dyson

I just paid 270 otd on a super clean one. Mags are going to be somewhat of your issue. I picked up a couple 10rd triple k mags and had to grind off the top part of the tab that holds it in the mag well. Took all of 5 minutes going slow and test fitting. Finished up with a dab of cold blue. Feeds as good as the factory mag.

In 1972 I was in the Army and stationed in Germany. I read about the then new Winchester 320 in a gun magazine and ordered one through the local Rod & Gun Club for $40. When it came in, it had a split stock. I was within a month of departing Germany, so no time to order another. The clerk said he would sell me “one of these German .22s” for the same price. It was an Anschutz Model 1416, a 5-shot mag like the 320. FOR $40!! I have never regretted that deal! The 1416 is the most accurate .22 rifle I have ever fired whether for game or target.
