Hey Guys,
Just wondering what you think about running 3/8 chain instead of the .325 that Stihl recommends on a 260 or 261. I know it takes a bit more power, but as long as I stick to the bar length recommendations, would the 3/8 pull just fine? I understand that the sprokets and everything have to match...I'm just curious about the pitch being different and how it will run...Basically I want to be able to have different bars and chains interchangeable with the other saws that I want that will for sure use 3/8 chain
