Hi,
I am in the market to replace my McColloch Eager Beaver 3.7,(20"-bar), Saw. It's served me well and I will keep it as a backup. I like the power of this saw and the longer bar.
I am looking at the Stihl MS290 and the MS310. I am also looking at the Husqvarna 350e, 353, 455 Rancher, and possibly the 359.
It looks like the 350e is comparable with the MS029 and the 359 is comparable to the MS310. I guess the 455 Rancher fits in between these saws. I believe the specs. show the Stihls as haveing more horsepower.
I have a two acre wooded lot as my residence and a 46 parcel that is 26 acres of woods. I also burn a woodstove for suplemnental heat. There seems like there is some thing to cut up for firewood on these parcels and I don't want to sell myself short with an underpowered saw.
Thanks,
Fire Bug
