Which chainsaws to get?

[@robertodebeers2551]

I recently bought a Stihl 500i. I've been logging and cutting firewood to sell since 1968, so I'm not new to chainsaws and especially Stihl Chainsaws. I found the 500i with the 25 inch bar to be too much saw for me, now, at 75 years of age. I loved the way it burned through Douglas Fir when blocking logs 20 inches in diameter. But, besides the weight, I hated trying to restart the saw after putting it down after extended cutting then letting the saw cool down. It would then not start. This happened again and again. Yesterday I bought another 362 Stihl with a carburetor to pair up with my older 362. Those saws are just right for me, and they START EVERY TIME.

They recommend the 462 over the 500. They love the 500 but apparently the injector clogs up if used for limbing and other jobs where it does not run flat out. Have you had similar experiences?

Both are very nice saws!

[@iffykidmn8170]

There is no comparison going from the 251 to a 261 likely similar in comparing the 180 and the 251 or think of the 261 as closer in power to a 290 but closer in weight to the 251. Niggle with the 362 is a personal decision. Still only my personal view when running the 261-50cc if I need a bigger saw, it usually is a bigger saw 70cc not stopping between with a 60cc saw. My jumps are 20-35cc top handles 50cc 70cc 90cc and 120cc if I was doing strictly firewood type cutting and only one saw a 60cc might be an ok in the middle compromise.

[@ocdwhisky181]

@@iffykidmn8170 I see. My initial thought was to run the 180, 251 and the 362 as my main felling saw rather than the 261 but heard so many great things about the 261 i thought on the lines of the 261.. The 362 does offer me an extra 14cc or 1.8hp extra to the 251 and although id love to go bigger budget is restricting at moment

[@iffykidmn8170]

@@ocdwhisky181 As said personal opinion and no person knows your needs but you, Hard to argue with your logic on the 362 combo of saws. Unfortunately budget often dictates purchases I have always purchased in the Pro line of saws and started with the 70cc and branched out smaller and larger as need and money allowed. If you were any where close I would borrow out a 50cc 261 and a 70cc for you to try. Kind of comes down to the old Goldie Locke's and the 3 bears.

I've been using chainsaws for roughly 45 years now and still have 5 of them. At times I've tried other brands but have always come back to Stihl and have been disappointed with anything else I've tried. I'm getting too old to start my bigger saws now though one I've had for over 40 years has the same compression it had when I bought it. I just can't start it these days so I experimented with a Makita 36 volt battery saw mainly because I was already using the battery system with other tools. I should have followed my instincts and bought a Stihl as the makita is useless! I'm about to trade one of my bigger saws in for Stihl battery saw, probably a 220C.

[@johngrossbohlin7582]

Stihl pro saws are always a good place to start. The 261 is a great all around saw and is my most used saw. The 46X and 500 saws make an excellent companion saw--I run a 461. Top handle... I don't climb so I don't really have a use for a top handle. On that note, I was in the saw shop where my son works the other day. Two different tree service business owners had been in that day, one while I was there, who cut their left hands while using top handle saws one handed. One cut the tendon in his thumb. The other missed the tendons and bones but still ended up with a hand full of stitches. These guys have been arborists for decades... On that note, from a safety standpoint, for light pruning and limbing, amateur and non-climbing users would probably be better off with something like an MS170-MS180 class two-hand traditional saw. Not as cool perhaps, but safer!

[@iffykidmn8170]

For those who want something more than a homeowners saw, Stihl makes rear handle CE version of their top handle T saws in what I like to the call the Pro-owner line 194CE and the 201CE at appx 4ozs more weight than the top handle version.

[@shaunryan1077]

It is great what you are doing . Keep it up . You should be running Husqvarna chainsaws...lol

MS 200 T☑️ MS 261☑️ MS 500i 🔲🤷‍♂️ I just built me a 241 from scratch this is a fine tool too! Perfect for smaller trees. Almost the power of the 261, but lighter.

[@Femalelumberjack]

I’ve run the 241 as well but I much prefer the 261

[@P.T._aus_B.]

@@Femalelumberjack The 241 can’t replace the 261. But I wanted something a little bit smaller for backup. I repair and use chainsaws for hobby.

I have for my business the msa 151t witch is god for the smal things like bushes and tree care. also i juse the husq 540t for tree felling by climbing. than is there the ms 271... this saw is a bad kompromis but i` get her as a present. and at least my big love the ms 500i "the beast".

[@Femalelumberjack]

The 500i is pure love 😊

Do you mix your own fuel at 50to1 or 40to1 or do you use pre mixed gas for your saws

[@JZ909]

881 with a 6 foot bar. No need for any other saw :P In all seriousness, I'm on the fence between the 500i and the 462. That one less pound makes the 462 feel a lot more climbable, at the same time, it feels a little weak for big ground work. Maybe 462 and just don't accept giant felling jobs until you can afford a 661.

[@Femalelumberjack]

I would pick the 500i
