Is the 390xp a worthy step up from a 576xp for bucking only? I am starting to take on logs for firewood that require a larger bar or cuts from both sides (I could likely get by with a 28 in bar, and that is my plan). Will the 576xp pull a 28 in dirty hardwood well enough that a 390 is a waste of money? Simply bucking in a yard non stop (for about 8 hours) two or three times a month.
I know someone will say 'port your saw!' but I am on the fence about how that will really work reliability wise for me and I don't want to have to worry about frying the clutch with all the new power. I love the 576 and am honestly thinking about buying a new auto tune one and getting my current one rebuilt and ported as my 'big' saw.
