All this talk of 16-18" bars makes me wonder if you guys have ever run a decent big saw. I have worked as a bucker (all you do all day is limb and cut logs to certain lengths), have cut many cords of firewood, probably hundreds, for myself and at work. My own saw for firewood is a 371 XP Husky with a 28" bar. I can't stand to use anything under 24", 28" is perfect for me, at 5'11'. Do you like to bend over or work on your knees?, sounds like something that those who play for the wrong team do. Stand up men. Don't pull the "its too heavy" BS. Back in the 60s and 70s weekend warriors used saws that are heavy by todays standards, way heavier than 260s, probably wieghed more than a 371XP. Am I wrong on that fact Thall and Andy? Those old saws are heavy aren't they?
