Hello all
I'm in the market for a new mid range saw.I 'm looking at the Stihl ms 310 and the ms361. Is the 361 worth the extra 200 bucks and why? I don't mind spending the extra if it is going to make me a more happier cutter.Is the chain tightener option worth the extra 20 bucks and will it hold up ? I use the saw in late fall and winter to cut wood to heat my home.Seems like I can't find time until I need the wood for heat.I live in Nebraska and have cut in the snow.I do enjoy the work and this way I do not work up a lather as apposed to the warmer weather.Do I need a heated carb option if I use it in the winter ? Thanks in advance for all your thoughts , this site is great !! Brad
