The Shooters Apprentice
Addicted to ArboristSite
let me start by saying I have read a lot of articles and threads about porting, and I have watched a lot of videos on porting, and I'm feeling pretty confident. My dad was a timber filler and I remember he always ran saws that were modified by Madsens.
So, I use my saws for firewood and clearing land, and they get run a fair amount.
I have 5 saws to choose from. I actually have serval more, but I'm a Husqvarna man and want my first ported saw to be a husky.
Saw 1 is a stock model 51. I would do a big bore kit on it to convert it to a 55.
Saw 2&3 are 346XPs, one with a primer bulb and one without.
Saw 4 is a 460 rancher, shamefully my most used saw right now because I like the weight.
Saw 5 is a 372XP high top.
What one would you guys do first? I'm leaning towards the 51 or one of the 346's.
