Ooh very good suggestion. I'd be happy with either of those.I can't answer your question, But will comment on your choice. I'd take a 357xp over a 262 any day.

i'm getting really bored with everything common around here. i'd have to get a mac or a pioneer. just found a 1074 yesterday but i want something larger CC so it can actually cut wood lol i do like to make them run good and put. Square chain on there. Funny to go to the local woodcutter spot and show them all up with a POS lol

Damn SVK, I don't like your rules, only ONE SAW and one that I have never owned before?
Okay, your game your rules
I Have never owned a Husky 395XP, but it is on my to yet add to collection list. At least I will still be able to do some reasonable CSM with it, it will be more than adequate for Firewooding,
But that bugger is sure gonna get tiring to limb with, and I don't know where I will find a 14" B&C for it
Now, back to Reality, the 3120XP is for milling, the 395XP is still on the "I'm Gonna get Me one of those Some Day" list, the 266XP that I have had for more than 26 years, I am NEVER parting with, the 460 Rancher is my "Truck" saw, and I still have the 23 Compact, that I bought new with the 266XP, A 550XP could also find a Home at my house, and the Wife just got a Husky 445 for Christmas, She said that she REALLY did want her own Chainsaw, and was thrilled when she unwrapped it.
Any Questions?

365 special.
That's the only saw my dad runs. He also has a 261/261 and a 2054 with heated handles. And all he runs is the 365. Even this last cold snap.
I honestly don't know the last time he ran the 261. I'm the only one that has used it the last ten years. Maybe I should bring it home with me one day.
Beware the man with only one gun. He knows how to use it kinda thing I guess.

I'm a dyed in the wool Stihl guy but the 572 XP is one hell of a saw from what I've read...and it just looks cool.
Both that and the 462 do look great! Although I'm always a bit skeptical of early versions of a new model as they often run a little better than their mass produced counterparts.
In some cases, "toys" are shaped that way on purpose. Read up on corvettes

I gues it would be a Stihl 461 since I don’t have one yet
First I have to want it.
Second I can't already have it, or in the past had it. That only leaves an 880 or 3120, Joe.

Stihl 461. Itll likely be replaced by the 462 if I get my hands on one and like it. Then my lineup will all be Mtronic.
If it's a saw I own then I'd say my 028. If I don't own it then a 044 with a 20 inch bar. If I wanted to be a muscular lumber jack I'll take my 051. But I'm sticking with the 044.
