I would liek some recomendations before I purchase a new saw. At the moment I have a 32" Panther mill that I've been running with a McMulloch 200 saw with a 24" bar. While the saw cuts its incredibly loud, heavy, a bit on the slow side and I don't think it will do well with a longer bar.
The majority of what I'm milling in a mix of yellow pine, cypress and poplar with an occational oak or walnut thrown into the mix. Most of the longs are in the 24"-30" diamteter range and have been down for several years.
I understand +100cc is needed in larger logs but based on what I'm cutting is the significant differnece in price between an MS661/395XP and a 3120XP/MS880 really be justified?
