Oregon 72DP or Woodland Pro 30SC. With the WP you can get rolls of 25,50,100 feet but i've never used it so i have no comment on either chain i've always used STIHL RM/RMC and you're right its $$$ but IMO its the best semi chisel out there.

I agree,, I would love to have the stihl chain but I just can't afford a 100 foot roll,, they won't sell me a 50 footer

Nope all my saws are Husky's with 3/8 .050 Oregon or Techlite bars except for top handles and a MS 361 that does have a .050 Stihl bar. You need an adapter to use a Stihl bar on a Husky but you can use Stihl chain on the bars you have.

no you don't want that - it has bumper links that will slow you down. I just bought a 100' roll of what you're after. It's 75D, but that's .063 gauge. So you want 72D

The Oregon chain isn't as hard, stretches more and doesn't hold an edge as long as Stihl JMO of course :biggrin:
One of the local guys here in Tipperary charges 35cent per link. So, about 25 Euro for a 20" bar. That's $32 equivalent. Ouch.
It looks like the DPX has the same raker design as the LPX and it's quite fast. I can't tell alot of difference between LPX and LGX. Now I've got some CL coming and looking forward to trying it.

Why not just buy one chain at a time? Most of the time semi chisel will last a whole days worth of cutting before it needs to be touched up. Even more so being stihl chain.

So are looking to sell chains or have multiple chains?

I agree you will pay more, but I would think that would be for people that are cutting on a daily basis. Such as tree companies or loggers. But if I remember correctly you did repair work on the side, so maybe your wanting to sell some chains? Then you have to look at what your profit would be per chain. Then find out if it would bring the roll down in price far enough to justify the price. You could also keep your eye out on ebay. There are folks that sell bulk stihl pre spun chain lots that were used once then a new one was put on. I have saw 5-10 used chains going for around $50 to 100$. You could always break them and re spin them to the size you need. One other thing to think about is asking in the classified section to buy used stihl chain. There HAS to be folks on AS that has TONS of used chain hanging up not being used that they might let go for $15 shipped, that still has half or better the tooth still left. When money is short you have to look at all options. That is if your looking for personal chain. One other option might be PMing folks on AS that have connections to see if they can get it cheaper.
