Naked Arborist
Hack from way back.
Last family of saws to mention, though I never owned (but used) one - are the 270/280 (can't say about the 271 since what I mentioned at the beginning) .. - they were the 1st (as far as I know) family of mid-sized STIHL chainsaws to sport the smooth heavier-duty steel springs for the main AV mounts. Again - correct me please , if I'm wrong (and I know the little 192T has springs too, they're far from this discussion.. lol). So far I have only read good reviews of their AV system.
Every time this comes up the MS361 seems to get left out. It is the first mid size Stihl saw to my knowledge, to sport the spring av system in the Stihl saw lineup.
Just built an 025 into a 250 and this thing is a 260 killer. Now I need to figure out why and how to repeat it over and over . Then try building a 260 that will kill the 025/250 toy.
