I’m a Husky guy (equipment, not stature) and I’ve always had good luck with Stihl chains, more so than the Xcuts. There is a limit though on .325 chains and the features you want. I fixed that by converting all my saws to 3/8” chain. Now I have no issues with what I want and when I want it. Good vid on a great subject! Mike

WST I have been considering swapping my smaller saws to 3/8 also. I'm gonna run the Stihl chain for a bit and see how it holds up for me

I always ran the husqvarna chain on my 359. I have never ran anything else to compare it with. Now I want to try the yellow still out of curiosity. I just bought an echo 620 a few months ago. It is running with the chain it came with. I like it ok. I don't know anything much about this stuff though.
@Lifeinthe9063 жыл бұрын
The 3/8 chains I am more familiar with .This .325 chain I have more to learn. I know the husqvarna x cut in 3/8 is available in non safety. I may try one of those on my 2165

I bought the archer chain and bar for janelle's 435e husky. It seems pretty good and it's a little cheaper than stihl bars and chain. But all my stuff is genuine stihl products.⚪🟠

Stihl Rapid Super? Never heard of it! LOL. Glad you found a dreaded STIHL dealer and that they were able to hook you up! I love RS for felling, but I generally try to run RM (semi-chisel) for bucking. I just bought RMF (Semi-Chisel, Full Skip) to run on my 362 with the 24” bar. I’m yet to run it though. I’ve always been pleased with the 362’s performance until I bought the 272... Running 24” bars on both saws definitely showcases the performance difference between a 60 and 70cc saw! Hoping the Full Skip sequence allows the Stihl to breathe a bit easier! Bless’ns to ya, Tedd

Hey Tedd good to see ya . I remembered after that video you were the guy with all the helpful info on the Stihl chains ! Thanks for the help. I have a few other smaller saws that run the .325 chain I will probably put the RS on them too.
