There's a full pound difference in actual use.
I believe you, and then there is bulk etc - but the specs over here indicate just .2 kg, which is less than halv a pound.

I had both and the 241 feel way better for limbing! Dont forget the 241 uses a Picco bar and chain.I believe you, and then there is bulk etc - but the specs over here indicate just .2 kg, which is less than halv a pound.

I see 4,5 vs. 4,9 kg for MS 241C-M and MS 261C-M v2, which is indeed almost a pound, or am I missing something? https://www.stihl.de/STIHL-Produkte/Motorsägen-und-Kettensägen/01582/Sägen-für-die-Forstwirtschaft.aspx

That's right!I am sure you are right about that - but people may be misled by specs, to think there won't be much difference.
That’s what I hear. Going to switch to PS and 18” Picco E bar.
In stock form they'll pull 325 just fine, and are often set up that way here and the UK.I had both and the 241 feel way better for limbing! Dont forget the 241 uses a Picco bar and chain.
Just got an email response from Stihl USA CS, and it confirmed that they have been discontinued. Running up on Friday to pick another one up, may be the last one available in the state from what I can gather, if it hasn't sold by then.Guys are you all sure these 241's are discontinued?
Will a "real" bar fit the smaller mount of the 241?

How well does the 18” oil?

The Cannon super mini does, .325 .050 gauge, 74DL. 72 DL for 18” on the 346.

A 74 dl .325 bar hardly is a true 18" bar, but it is getting reasonably close. The 72 dl Husky mount (K095 etc) bars definitely are short for the called length, about a full inch short.
The 66 dl ones also is a bit short for the called 16", while the 64 dl ones are pretty much spot on for their called 15". Somehow the difference between 66 and 64 dl seems to be just what mostly is needed around here though, so most of my K095 bars are the 66dl variety.

You are right about a .325 k095 18" bar.....at least this one. Bought it as an 18" bar, have an 8 pin on the saw with a 73dl chain which is just about right. I have the same bar in 16" and my 66dl chains will just barely fit with the 8 pin but there is no adjustment in the tensioner....I think 67dl would be better.
This is the 18" bar....
