Got together with a Buddy of mine today and Finally got a Chance to let my Saws Rip into some nice big Logs from a recent Storm we had up here in Washington, While they were all impressive and alot of Fun to Cut with, That Damn! 750 is a Ripper. For those of you who've never gotten a chance to use one, I highly Recommend one if you get the Chance, They're Simply Bad Ass. I looked at some of your Video's Hoss and you mentioned that they're your Favorite Saw and I can see why. Not sure how they compared to some of the other Old Big Saws like a McCulloch 125 or a New Husqvarna 3120XP, but BOY!!! it puts a Smile on my Face everytime we dipped it into another Log.
Well I have yet to meet a stock saw that will outcut my 750, but of course chain, bar, operator, sprocket and the health of the saw all are variables. I do have one pretty good head to head comparison though. My buddy Scott and I were cutting red oaks and large catalca blowdowns at a local farm. I had brought many saws, but the two in question were my regular user 750 and my newly aquired husqvarna 3120. Both saws were running 7 pin rim drives 42" or 48" bars (sprocket nose) with .404 round chisel on both. Also both sharpened by me. Anyway once we got this one big (40" maybe) catalca limbed we started cutting at either end with me at the big end (there wasn't very much taper though to be fair) and the 750 was consistantly about 1/8 or so faster faster per cut despite it's 6cc disadvantage. So this is about the most scientific head to head I have experienced with a 750. Oh yeah, the comp on the 3120 was about 160+ and the comp on THAT 750 is about 175psi.
