Hello smokeymt46, and welcome to the Experts forum.

Winchester introduced the Model 310 in 1971, and discontinued it in 1975. Total production was 13,544 rifles. I would not expect that it is easy to find one, but that does not translate into it being a high-dollar gun. If your rifle is in like new condition, you might get $300 for it from the "right" person. Otherwise, it is a $200 - $250 rifle on a good day.

Here is one that just sold last month.
Click on the bid history. It looks like there are quiet a few people out there willing to give a good amount for a model 310.

I believe the 310 was the single shot version of the 320 that came with 5 and 10 shot mags. The actions were originally sourced from Australia from a company called Sportco. Sportco made many rimfire, centrefire rifles and shotguns during the 60's and 70's in Australia. The action is the same as the Sportco model 62. They were popular here and there are many still around. I think the owner of Sportco, Jack Warne (?), moved overseas where he had some involvement with Kimber Firearms. Still does I think. I have a 320 and although its no Win 52 I quite like it.
