Greetings all:
I purchased an MS 250 last fall and so far it has been a great saw. I just started burning wood this last winter and figure I will need to cut 2-3 cords per year.
It came stock with a 14" bar--this isn't quite long enough for some of the trees I'm cutting. My question is: will this saw handle an 18" bar? I know it will a 16" b/c some come with it. But I was just thinking if I was going to buy a longer bar it might be nice to have the 18 if she could pull it.
By the way I cut mostly ash, maple, and elm.
Any input would be great. Thanks guys!
