CS300 Replacement Chain

[MajMac]

I'm replacing a chain on my 14" Echo CS300 saw. Excellent small saw and I want a good chain. I see both Woodsman PRO and the Oregon. Is one better than the other. I'm just a homeowner but do quite a bit of cutting.

Thanks in advance.

both are good, not enough difference to notice. Should be a 50 link chain, 3/8" lo-pro and .050 gauge.

I think it takes the same chain as my cs-3000. 52 drive links.

ah, yes. My apologies. It's my Stihl 200T that takes the 50 link. You are correct, the Echo is 52 link for the 14". Maybe next time I'll see if I can get my brain and my fingers on the same page before typing a reply.

Yes it is the 52 link I think. I was just trying to determine there was a good better or best version. I went by 'Home Despot' and they carry their own brand, Power Products or something like that. Made in China. I know it is probably just as good but I thought I'd look for another name brand.
