It has come to the point where I've decided to replace the chain on that McCulloch 1-76 I got running this fall. It has a 42" hard nose bar with .404" chain. In inspecting the old chain, I notice is made out of two different types of Stihl chain. About 2/3 of the loop is .058 gauge chipper chain and the rest is .063 gauge chisel chain. I checked the bar for clearance and came up with .070". I'm planning to go with Oregon chisel chain, but I'm unsure what gauge to select. Do you fellas have any useful advice on the matter?
