choice of three saws - help/advice required

[18 stoner]

I would say you guys are going a little over the top with a 90cc saw for cross cutting, especially if an 18" bar has done the job so far.

 

Personally for a 99% of the time logging saw, I would go for either the 365 with 18" bar or the 372 with 20" or 24".

 

Both these saws are a little more old school than the others on your list, cheaper, will be well on top of the job cross cutting all day and will last years.

 

If there was to be a downside at all, it will be the AV is not so good on these due to being older design. The XPG would help though.

Ahh the temptation to get a bigger saw - every one i look at and then the bigger model its the same, going to be good though and stick to a sensible (ish) size. so when mate pays up for saw nearer xmas i will go buy my xmas pressie to self. Did have somebody trying to convince me to update other saw too, my 340, but its great for lighter stuff i reckon,,,,,,,,,,,,,poor piggy bank could take a proper beating yet!

In that case - 372xp + 346xp

mate save your money and get a 365, if your logging its got lots of power and good torc to it,the 357 xp is a pro saw lighter than the 365 but your not going to be waveing it about, limbed and logged 60 bramblys with mine to today!!

I would go 372 mate I love them as do lots of others on here for the little extra cost it's well worth it especially as it will last you years and is so nice to use
