Mostly dead Oak. Semi chisel works better for my conditions, stays sharp a lot longer.Your wood must be "dirty" then - I way prefere LP/LPX in my wood!

This is funny because when I order parts for my snowmobile the first question out of their mouth is "what is the part number". Some times they act like you are bothering them if they have to look it up. If your on the phone they will even put you on hold and take the next caller and make you wait. It annoying as hell because where I grew up it was exact opposite.
I am certain I would like the .325 also, BUT I already have a ton of bars and chains in 3/8, .058.
THAT is the main reason I need/want 3/8.

My 550 loved 3/8 the same way 346 NE love it. 550 was even better with 3/8.
Just change the dang rim to 3/8 7Tand put on a 3/8 b+c
This is all just nuts to me?? I really think I'm going to start getting birthday and Christmas cards for my dealer. I mean, I have one guy that really treats me right (price & service).He's a part owner. The rest of the staff I just view a clerks. Guess I should count my blessings.
Here's the thing on warranty. You probably will never need it. That said, when you do, you want to deal with someone that knows the score. You would be miles ahead shipping a saw back to a site sponsor, than to try to explain to some "clerk" that 3/8 chain didn't smoke your AT chip.

I could care less about flimsy husqys, but I do know something about denied warranty claims. If you were to come in expecting a warranted repair of your blown up 550xpat, guess what, not covered because of the 3/8"! You'd better buy the oil to double the warranty! Twice of void is still zero... best of luck with trying to go over your dealer's head, right or wrong, then expect good treatment down the road. The forum may be right about fitting 3/8 to your new saw, but will the forum be there to fix your saw under warranty?

They laughed a little and stated that YOU GUYS ARE WRONG. opcorn:
Really? That'll be the first I've heard of anyone, anywhere, talking up those wimpy little felling dogs. I guess if you get off on my making an offer to buy mesupras saw, that's fine, post it up! It won't make your hukys less flimsy....
That's the reason that all my saws wear 3/8 x .050, simplicity. One roll of chain, one size file, one size grinding wheel, there was only one size rim sprocket until I got my 346, now there's two. Until I got a few Huskys, one bar fit everything, and not having two different pitch chains in the tool box on the truck to create confusion.The reason I run 3/8 on all my saws is for sharpening with a grinder. ABN grinding wheels aren't cheap. If you keep all your saws running the same pitch chain, you only need one grinder setup. If both chains are equally sharp, a .325 chain may actually out cut a 3/8 chain due to the narrower curf. I dont care. I do it for simplicity.
One stupid and useless post after another from you. Aren't there any Stihl threads that you can "contribute" to?
It's gotten to the point that it's sad, real sad, but still funny!One stupid and useless post after another from you. Aren't there any Stihl threads that you can "contribute" to?
