I am fixing up a Stihl MS 460 and I bought a 24” Oregon bar and a 24” chain for it. The chain slides in the rails smoothly, fits the nose sprocket fine, and fits the saw sprocket fine. The issue is it seems like the chain is ONE link too short! The chain is the correct 84 drive links (I counted), but no matter how far back I adjust the bar, or stretch the chain. it is about 1/2” short of going on properly. What am I missing? Did I get a bad chain, or is this operator error?
