I feel like the 460 with a muff mod would be more the adequate for my needs. I think il end up with 20 and 25 inch bars for the saw.
Does anyone know how many tanks approx. it will take to break in?
A 20" bar makes a very nice all around bar. I'd skip the 25" and get a 28" Light bar. Break-in is over rated. Don't work it too hard for the first couple tanks, but it should be strong right out of the box. The biggest improvement you can do for the saw is to open that muffler up. They don't have near the exhaust area as they did when they were developed, and suffer significantly in power loss.
