Got a quick look at Reed's 620 today. Wrap handle had a really nice feel to it, and the muffler mod sounded great. Definitely gotta get myself one!

Ran a tank through her, had a blast. Really rips through alder! Now I gotta get my 272 ported or it'll just sit.

Good. No complaints. Haven't run it a whole lot lately but when I do it runs hard

U really think the 620 will beat the 562xp with the longer bar. I would like to see that video make me feel shamed for getting the husky after my luck with smaller echos
I have several videos here and on YT that show the 620 running against may other saws... I don't have a 562XP with a 27"/28" bar to run it heads up against nor do I intend on spending $700+ dollars on one just appease those who want proof, even though my opinion, from running both stock, is that with a longer bar it just pulls it better.
What happened to your smaller Echo's? You like the 500P?

The 500p is great for anything under 10inches nice and light. I have a 310 my first saw it mostly collects dust other then stripped bar studs its bulletproof.

The echos not being strato charged will have more torque.so far the strato saws i have run have speed but are lacking in torque.the 60cc echos are more mcculloch like torque than most any non strato stihl or husky that i have ran.
Like i keep telling saw troll.comparing strato charging to non strato charged saws is like comparing apples to oranges.strato charging has its place.don't get me wrong.just not impressed with it on saws.leaf blowers?yes.just like 4 mix on pole saws but not on trimmers.
I'm hoping strato charging will be improved upon in the future. Great technology but its just lacking something.

Not sure why these turned out so odd but here is the 550P PHO score which was NOS... 3 bills, not bad... so far spent a good bit chasing a flooding issue, turns out the carb adj were out so set them to stock, this carb is different then the 590, 600, 620 types... uses 1 3/8 out on L, 3 3/8 out on H and 1 3/8 out on "T" or Idle. We will see tomorrow if it works out
Do you know if the 550p shares the same chassis/case as any of the 6 series saws? l got a good deal on a NOS 550p and its a nice solid saw, just wanted to know if there were any bolt on upgrades.....like a 620p jug & slug or something. I could also see a 620p w'wrap handle in my collection somedayNot sure why these turned out so odd but here is the 550P PHO score which was NOS... 3 bills, not bad... so far spent a good bit chasing a flooding issue, turns out the carb adj were out so set them to stock, this carb is different then the 590, 600, 620 types... uses 1 3/8 out on L, 3 3/8 out on H and 1 3/8 out on "T" or Idle.
