Stihl claim is they are number on. The reason why I run Stihl is they are reliable, durable, and withstand the test of time. Ive seen echos and poulans blowup. Ive held husky knock offs, they are too boxy and don't fit right in my hands. The power and weight ratio feels just right in a Stihl. That's why I run Stihls.
346xp best saw ever made but boxy ?

this was my thought, but I likes um allStihl for working......Husky for racing. :msp_wink:
The rest for the heck of it.
I have about 60 saws now JJ.
I know i might get flamed for this but don't get me wrong cause the 346 is a great saw but i think it is a bit overrated here on AS. I recently aquired a 357 and the thing is not that much bigger or heavier then a 346 but has a good amount more power. Maybe it's just me. I'm used to a bigger saw so the 357 just feels better. IMO the 550 is a much nicer saw then the 346. Lighter and handles really nice. I'm really dig'n the autotune as well.
have to agree with you not a lot more weight but the 357xp is quite a bit betterI never ran a 346xp, a few saws do get hyped up on AS, by all means im sure it is still a heck of a saw. I just bought a brand new 545 (de-tuned 550xp) about 2 weeks ago and have 7 tanks through it and I love it. Right about 5 tanks I noticed it was starting to wake up/break in. It starts easy hot/cold and I find it to be natural to hold. Love the AutoTune.
