I need a replacement saw ('had' a Husqy 455R) for occasional Landowner use. I have an excellent Stihl dealer down the street that I like dealing with. We have mostly Oak trees and nothing 'huge' I'd be cutting (by arborist standards), bigger ~10" limbs mainly. I've narrowed down to 3 saws: 270, 290, and 260 Pro. I'm mainly concerned with long term reliability, ease of maint, and build quality...weight is no concern. I've searched but need more specific info.
Any suggestions on which saw and bar size should suit me best? Much appreciated!
