Mine is this the dreaded husqvarna 288[emoji123]
 
I'm a believer of the 50/70cc combo but here lately I have been running a 346 and 390xp. That 390 really hauls the mail in bigger rounds! The 346 was freshly rebuilt earlier this summer and has about 10-15 tanks through it so far. Very pleased with how that one runs!

Some of the damage as of late. A nice load of pin oak and hickory. Been pretty busy lately, have cut 6 truck loads in the past month...

Never used to think about a smaller saw for firewood, the 064 is what I had for work so that's what I used for firewood, has been great having the husky 51 this year for limbing and smaller stuff though.

Very good thread! something interesting to me also is there isnt much mention of echo. I have seen very few listed. With midrange saws so popular and the 600p series at a very good price point i figured there would be more of them around.

Yeah those light saws are great for small stuff I have a husky 137 for the light operations saves allot of energy from lugging the big ones around.

My go to saws are Dolmar 6400 & 6100 for the big stuff, Dolly 5100/ Husky 350 for the medium stuff, and a dolly 421 for the little stuff. its very seldom I fire up the 6400. Id say the husky 350/dolly 5100 gets about 95% of my fire wood duties. Although lately the 421 has been my go to saw. I know there are guys out there that use the bigger saws all day long to buck up fire wood. Id rather use the smaller saws and not be burnt out as much at the end of the day.
You can take the 5100 off the list for a bit can't you lol.
