I recently purchased an MS 250 which I had configured with a Stihl .325 inch RS .063 chain on the stock 16 inch Stihl bar that came with the unit. My use will be to clear some 10-15 inch pine trees, use for general tree maintenance and cut a small amount of firewood. This is a saw for basic casual use. I have moderate experience with chain saws. I went to another Stihl dealer who told me that the chain was way to aggressive for the saw and that the saw did not have the power to operate the RS chain. He couldn't believe that someone sold me the saw with this chain. This made me think that maybe I over did it. I have been looking for an RMC chain for a second chain but none of the Stihl dealers in California seem to have them. Did I screw up and should I go back and buy an RM chain.
