[QUOTE="muddy42, post: 8136118, member: 187892"] Personally I think you are always going to be close to braking a 70-90 cc saw with a 50 inch chain. I'd buy a dedicated 120 cc milling saw and a 50 something inch bar. You can mill anything with this setup and with that extra power it doesn't really matter what chain you use. If its for milling you can even get away with the older saws without a chain brake which are much cheaper. Sorry to be contrarian, but I've tried to mill with a 70 cc saw, wasted a lot of money and wish I'd upgraded sooner. [/QUOTE]
