I just picked up a couple of old target rifles, and am looking for some info about them.

One is a Mossberg 320B, single shot bolt, with an S330 sight and corresponding front sight. In good condition except for light 'frosting' on the metal.

The second is a Remington 514 single shot bolt, with a Redfield rear sight. Same condition as above.

As for specific information, I'm not a lot of help. But I will say that my shooting partner has one of those Mossbergs, his is minty. They are very accurate .22's, nearly as accurate as my Martini:p LOL. Great rifles.
 
Mossberg 320 B

According to "Mossberg More Gun For The Money", the 320 B was a "deluxe" model of the 320 series which were introduced in 1957. They were the first of Mossberg's "hammerless" design. It was the same rifle as the 320 K except the B had deluxe sights, namely the S330 receiver sight.
Depending on which data you look at, they were either built from 1958-1960 or 1960-1968.
You can get parts, diagrams & info from www.havlinsales.com and join the Mossberg Collectors Association.
 
Another web site says:

The Remington 514 was an inexpensive single shot. Suprised someone would put a Redfield sight on it.
