Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Winchester Model 255 is a distinctive lever-action rifle chambered in .22 Magnum, representing a modern evolution of Winchester’s legendary lever-gun heritage. Produced between the early 1960s and 1970, the Model 255 departs from the company’s traditional hammer-fired designs, featuring a sleek hammerless action and contemporary styling while maintaining the quick-cycling operation and dependability that made Winchester famous. Its 20-inch blued barrel, paired with a serrated ramp blade front sight and adjustable rear, provides excellent balance and accuracy for small-game hunting or target shooting. The rifle’s tubular magazine holds up to 11 rounds of .22 WMR, offering an impressive combination of range, power, and precision in a lightweight, easy-handling platform.

Aesthetically, the Model 255 showcases Winchester’s craftsmanship with its diamond-checkered walnut stock and forearm, blending modern performance with traditional wood-and-steel appeal. As part of Winchester’s 200 series—which also included the Models 250, 270, and 275—the Model 255 stands out as one of the rarest and most collectible of the line, particularly in its magnum chambering. While it reflects the design trends of the 1960s, it also embodies the enduring spirit of the Winchester lever-action legacy. Today, the Model 255 is prized by collectors and enthusiasts for its unique mechanical design, limited production, and role as a bridge between the company’s classic frontier image and its mid-century innovations.
