First of all big shout out to terry landrum. Took the time and effort listen to mmy back and forth rambling. Also answered all questions very quick. He gave one helluva price compared to local dealer and modded the muffler which is a much cleaner job than I would pull off. Also to all the endless reading I have done on here pushed me toward 70cc as opposed to a 60cc.
Sorry about the cluttered work bench haha sure I'm not alone.
Did some test cuts on a downed oak outback. First off saw is smooth. I thought my 550 was smooth.
the saw did not flinch at all with the 20" on it. It feels more like a lower Rev than I'm used to with my 550.. different saws tho for sure. Husqvarna specs say it's rpm are the same tho? Definitely has the grunt to pull the longer bar when I need one. The balance with the 20" was perfect. Saw feels very good in the hands. It also felt lighter/better than the 441cm I was finger fn at the dealer. Although I ran it for a short time. I can see myself useing this on a full day of cutting. Will get a full workout this sunday!
