I think you got me wrong. I think the Winchester-branded ones don't sell very well at all, because they have plain wood, and I've heard that even the metal finish isn't up to the level of the Brownings. The rimfires might sell well at $800-$900, plain wood and all, but not so much at $1200 or thereabouts. The CFs in some calibers are widely discounted, but many of them are the silly 16 1-2" Trapper models that are cute, but not very practical shooters.
I did see a nice .38/55 Hunter model recently at a decent price, but I'm not able to buy it right now.
A little patience will get you a beautiful Browning in like-new condition or even NIB, which is how I got my .44. My Hornet was picked up new at my LGS for $695, albeit 15 years ago. Might be the best rifle I own, though I don't shoot it all that much.
