Why would they ship the 346 NE from the factory with NK bar and chain if its not the best combination for that saw? They have done the testing I'm sure and want the saw to perform the best it can so they can sell more saws .
i think it's a holdover from the older 346.....maybe they had tons of those bars/chains laying around and need to off them somehow...
I use mine with nk, having not known any better, but I'll wait til I trash the nk stuff before changing it out. the trees i cut don't seem to grow money.
