which saw ?

[White Noise]

In need of a new mid range saw 044 stihl or 372 husky . Pros and cons please . Ive had numerous 044s but never had the pleasure of a 372 Thanks .

We run the 441's bigger brother the 460. We have all Stihl Kit where i am based as you can get hold of the parts easily and they are easier to maintain that the same powered Husky.

50/50? Phone a friend?

 

044 long gone; became MS440 and is now totally superceeded by MS441 whilst the 372 husky continues on popularity but also has a successor, the 576.

 

So, 70cc Stihl vs Husky.

The new 576 autotune got an extremely favourable review in Forestry Journal not so long back.

got both and like both of them, depends what colour you like, stihl are much cheaper for spare parts.

Proves how good they were - left indelible memories i.e. 020, 024, 026, 034, 036, 044, 046, 066 etc. I think 020 is a little more acceptable!! My climber says that too.

Not really thought about the 460 . Something else to through into the mix .

If you are adding a 460 to the equation then that is the clear winner - unbelievably good saw - runs rings around my mak 7901 and H 390xp; not on paper no - but in reality oh yes! Get one before they bring out the 1 ton 461 !
