A Magnum sticker will make it run faster and jump higher, 'cause everything you do is more fun with a Magnum.

I must agree! Love my ( MAGNUNS )

Put it in some wood today,all 20 inches of bar,WOW,WOW,WOW!!
Very impressed.Just wait until it's broken in.My 362 was a screamer
of a saw,but this thing has incredible torque.

This saw might run as nicely as my Stihl 046 Mag does today:



Dang, I love this saw. A little old, but it runs like it was brand new. About all I added since this Pic was taken was a dual-port muffler.

Why bother with a 461 if you're only running a 20" bar? That saw deserves a 28" or 32" ES light.

I knew somebody was going to say that! Seriously,my plan is to fit it with a 28" bar,I just don't have the extra money right now.

True true. I carry a 25" on mine as shown above for most bucking and noodling and keep a 32" B/C in the truck for bucking whoppers. This saw will never let you down if you treat it with some respect.
