Smaller hands like the single stack I carried the P220 in 45 for years I liked it. I now carry a S/W Shield in 45 I think they just came out with a 10MM compact, thin with or without a safety textured grip that feels great when shooting. No 320 experience sorry.
If had a choice between a 220 or my shield I’d take the shield for comfort and the performance is the same.

I have both the 320 in 9mm and 220 in 10mm, I prefer the 10mm but it's not a light pistol especially after you stuff it with 200 grain rounds.

an 1/8th inch in grip difference can make one gun feel right for you and one gun not feel right.
best if she can shoot both or go with the one she knows works , if she likes her dads 320 in 10mm and shoots it well that might be the answer
if possible shoot them all and then decide this is why rental ranges are worth the money if they have every one you want to shoot
run a mag in each and take notes after shooting each one
bring her riding gloves with , one gun works without gloves but won't work with gloves , you want to find the one that works with and without gloves.

Have her pull up and point at a object to see how the zeros in for her without aiming with the sights, under stress everything you have learned goes out the window so it becomes point and shoot so being as spot on automatically will make a difference.
One hand drill no aiming is another life saver up close just try shooting from the hip without practice and see where you hit in front of you.
No safety is a good thing under stress one less thought to get in the way, with the right holster one that covers the whole trigger as that is your safety the complete rig goes on and off and the gun remains in the holster unless you have a good reason to un holster it.
I don’t like double stack guns I have smaller hands if I pull up to aim the gun favors the left of center aiming point when gripping.

Another vote for whichever one is a single stack. So long as it fits her hand and points well, I'd think either would be great choices.

why favor single stack ? that just means less capacity I understand if it is a concern for smaller hands but women can have xl hands also not sure his wife does but my wife is 6 foot and wears a large or xl glove
I am 6' 2" and wear a XL or XXl glove
I say whatever fits the only reason I can see for single stack is if double doesn't fit the hand and single does
there are times a double is just hardly wider that a single they just take more out of the frame width. or run skinnier grips.

Because 17 shots and you don’t hit anything is not as good as 2 in the chest.
You see 2 guys on opposite side of a car fire multiple shots and nobody gets hit would be a good example of that poor fit under stress = missing.

I'm wondering how much buck you'll get with the 320 being a polymer frame? The 220 has a stainless steel frame and it handles hot loads quite well.
