Here’s the full code how I think it should work (but doesn’t!).

<?php
$post_id = "user_365";
$userrignnumbers = get_field( 'ring_numbers', $post_id ); // Get all the 'released' bird ring numbers entered by this user 

$args = array (
	'post_type' => 'wglocations',
	'posts_per_page'  => -1,
	'category_name' => 'wg-finding',
	'meta_query' => array (
		array (
			'key' => 'leg_ring_number',
			'value' => $userrignnumbers, // Use the user's 'released' ring numbers
			'compare' => 'IN', // Compare them to any 'found' ring numbers
		)
	)
	);
$query = new WP_Query ($args); // Output any matching 'found' entries
	if ( $query -> have_posts() ) : ?>
	<ul>
	<?php while ($query -> have_posts () ) : $query->the_post(); ?>
		<li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_field('leg_ring_number') ?> (<?php the_field('date') ?>)</a></li>
	<?php endwhile; ?>
	</ul>
	<?php endif; 
wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
