Hello from eastern Indiana! I would like to get your opinions on a couple of models that Stihl produces. My brother-in-law has recently moved to a property that has many opportunities for using a chainsaw. He has a lot of potential firewood on the property, and he also has a fireplace that he has been burning a lot of wood in. He would definitely use the saw a little more than the average "Joe Homeowner". How would you rate the Stihl ms 310 and the ms 390?
I currently am running a Husqvarna 455 rancher, but I was a little hesitant in recommending this model because it is somewhat heavy for the amount of power that it has. It has been a pretty decent saw, but I think that the Stihl brand might be the better way to go - especially because they tend to have a better dealer network/assistance. Thanks in advance for your help!
