I cut firewood just like Scott does for a living, have 2 MS 261's and they are fantastic saws. I have mine set up with 18" .325 set up's. Absolutely love them, prolly going to buy a third, and set it off to be ported as I getting old and worn out, one member who has had this done states it will cut right with a stock 440.
I tried the Husky 346xpne for a year, I'd never go back to a stock one after owning these 261's. They are real fuel sippers, as STLfirewood pointed out. The air filter set up is the best of any saw currently on the market imho. Smooth as silk, the captive bar nuts are nice to have. If I were looking to complement the 362, I'd look no further. I've been using saws for 35 years, imho it is as good as any saw Stihl has put out.
We run the dog snot out of them 5-6 hours a day, somedays more. People can dog them over weighing 9 oz more than some of the competitive saws, but they are built rock solid, just like the old 028/038 tyoe saws.
