Can the Russian sks use 223 ammo?
No. ALL SKS rifles - Soviet, Chinese, Albanian, Yugoslav, Chinese, Romanian, N. Korean, N. Vietnamese and East German - are chambered for the 7.62x39 M1943 cartridge, and can facilitate only that cartridge.
Is Chinese sks as good as a Russian sks?
This is purely opinion on my part, but the SKS was created in Russia, and made there for a number of years before the Chinese began manufacture. The Russian SKS tends to have better quality machining than the Chinese. Both are good, but the Russian is the original, and the better built rifle. Examine one of each side-by-side, and see what you think.

How much is a 7.6239 SKS worth?
All SKS carbines were made in 7.62x39. As for value, anywhere from $100 to over $1500, depending on where it was made, overall condition, rarity, etc. The SKS was manufactured in the former Soviet Union, China, former Yugoslavia, Albania, Romania, former East German, Vietnam, and North Korea. Adding further to the equation, there are both military issue Chinese SKS carbines, and ones manufactured for the civil market. We'd need a lot more information in order to narrow down the value.
