We have a Stihl 076AV that we run for cutting trunks down low with a 36" bar. Chainsaw is bulletproof. Always starts easy and runs great, and the entire case is metal so no plastic to break. Sure, the saw weighs ~50lbs with a 36" bar, but that's why we only use it for truck cuts!

76's are neither new, nor 100cc. They will be out cut by either the 3120 or 880, both of which are lighter (if that's a term you can use with either one) and stronger. They also feature plastic which flexes with impact.

I don't think there are any 100cc saws currently imported to the US. As mentioned, the 395 and 660 are 95cc class saws, as well as the Dolmar 9010.

Would guess it would depend on what you want to do with the saw. Your choice is 90ish cc or 120 ish cc, for new saws. The 120 cc saws are HEAVY. Not something you would want to lug around all day. Powerful? Very much and with a little tinkering they can be a lot more powerful.

The 90cc saws are a lot less weight to lug. They work in all but the largest wood that requires long bars (over 42"). Again with a bit of porting, they wake up and become much more sporty.

There is also a 25 to 35% bump in price when you move from 90 to 120cc.

Hal, what new/currently manufactored makes & models are 120cc? I'm asking seriously, I don't really keep up with new saws.

Actually, there never were any saws that were exactly 100cc, if that is what this is about - those that were called 100cc all were "only" 99cc.

The currently made saws that are over 100cc are the (smaller to larger) the 070/MS720, 076, 3120xp, MS880 and the 090 - as far as I know.

Saw answers but the STIHL MS 880 (121.6cc) and the Husky 3120 (118.8).

Once ported, the 880 I have is quite a beast.

Actually, Mike Acers site lists the Homelite 1130G and the 1050 at 100cc. There are probably others from other makers.

Most of those can't be had new in the US - wish the 090 were available here.

In NZ you'll have the previously mentioned Stihl MS660, Husky 390XP and Makita DCS9010 (all around 90cc) and just above them and a heavier saw is the Husky 395XP (94cc)

Above 100cc, all you have these days in new saws are the MS880 and Husky 3120XP.

Anything else mentioned just isn't available new or just not available in our part of the world.

I've seen this ? in another thread.:redface::tongue2:

Forgot about them.

Made in Italy, and that's about all I know, but looking at the sheet specs the Makita is nearly 2kg lighter and the same HP, so the 660 and 390 would have more grunt and be lighter too and the 395 would cream it on grunt.

Lifted this from the Oleo-Mac site specifications-

Power / Displacement

5.0kW / 101cc

Chain (pitch x gauge)

.404" x .063"

Oil Pump

Automatic / Adjustable / Manual

Oil / Fuel Tank Capacity

0.60l / 1.00l

Weight

10Kg

______________________

Stihl 660 specifications-

DISPLACEMENT 91.6cm 3
ENGINE POWER 5.7kW
WEIGHT (POWERHEAD ONLY) 7.3kg
GUIDE BAR LENGTH 63cm / 25" STIHL ROLLOMATIC LAM :msp_biggrin:

______________________

Both round $2,000. Don't know why anyone would lug around the extra weight of 2.7Kg for the 0.3Kw extra.

For that much weight (but extra $$$'s) you could be carrying around a 880-

DISPLACEMENT 121.6cm 3
ENGINE POWER 6.4kW
WEIGHT (POWERHEAD ONLY) 9.9kg
GUIDE BAR LENGTH 63cm / 25" STIHL ROLLOMATIC®
