What's the most impressive saw you've ever run?

[RiverRocket]

Right out of the box Stihl 460 same weight as a 440 or 441 with alot more power.
2nd would be Dolmar 7900 great power to weight also. after about six tanks of fuel (Break in) these two saws really come alive.

 

[815 blade]

I run an old dolmar 166, for an older saw it's pretty hard to beat in big hardwood, but then again I've never had the pleasure of running any modded saws.

I don't really have a favorite.

The saw that has most impressed me most in the last week is the 372XP.....

Thought it would have been my Makita with the sideways cutting chain...

Oh really, my scale here in the shop would say hogwash to that. The 460 is a bit heavier then the 441 and probably even more then the 440. I have a 044 in a box to be put back together soon and will let it be known for sure how much lighter it is. The 460 is a larger displacement then both of those as well so it very well should have more power then both but it dont seem to have alot more then the 441.

I have said before that to me the 460 is the most overated saw on AS compared to others. Not a bad saw at all and in fact a very good one, just over rated here.

Mastermind 288. Nothing else compares. Everything else falls miserably short. Might sell them all and just keep it and the Dolly 120si.:msp_wink:

I got to run a Woods ported 562xp at the GTG and that thing was pretty snotty. But scarr's 288xp was a vicious work saw. Jake basically rode it through the wood. I've never seen someone push so hard and the saw keep pulling the chain.

One of these day's I'll get to try out one of your saws. Until then you gun toatin' monkey keep up the good work. From the vids I've seen of yours I'd have to say your 346's look like my kind of saw.

[cobey]

I ran two huskys one maybe a 357xp? it ran super good, and one of stumpys saws at hedgefest both were great! the most disapointing was
my #2 cs370 echo in the saw races :msp_sad: its fastest for limbing and stuff. but several ran the pp5020 and said it ran good with the
16" b&c

Never owned or run one, have 031's and an 036. I was impressed with the 056 I picked up last week, I slapped the 25" bar I bought for my 460 on it and it was happy. The Poulan 5400 Riprap brought me was also a good runner pulling a 28" bar.

i/m wanting to give a 670 echo a spin one day

The Princess 385 done by Tree Monkey was very impressive. It was amazing how much faster it was then the ported 660's we were running.
