top handle chain

[JBA]

Hey guys pretty new to the site. Just wondering what chain you run on your top handle saws. I'm sure the factory chain on my echo 341isnt the best or fastest cutting chain. Any recommendations? Thank you in advance for any advice.

I use Stihl PM on my Echo 355. Oregon 91VXL is also good chain.

Best I have found is Stihl PS3

Thats the best i've used also on my 201 and 200, but it doesn't come in 52 or 56 dl to used on the Echo so i use PM non-safety.

I keep hearing you guys talk about this PS3, I'm gonna have to try some.

You'll like it, it has the bumpers but they're so low they aren't even a factor.

Pretty safe bet that the "best" chain is the one that's just been filed, and had its depth gauges set.

Just saying ...

I like the Oregon 91vxl & the woodland pro 30lp. I haven't tried that new stihl chain.
