best big saw

[ptrinder]

looking to get a big saw 28"+ bar and wondered what was best ? 395xp?

Any advice gratefully recieved.

The ms660 is a very good saw but for my money I would opt for the 395xp imo

If you like your husky's then the 395 , I run one it's worked very hard and is quite old now, never let me down yet and I would recommend one the 660 is a good saw though.

I have a 660 and a 395, I find the 395 a better saw and it feels more powerful, I also have a 3120 which is a great saw to.

395xp, cracking saw!

cheers, been looking at a 395xp . what's the biggest bar that it'll take without affecting performance?

I run a 36" and a 28" strangely it seems to cut better with the 36" IMO makes no sense, but hey!!

Got a 36 and a 20 for mine, 20 is awesome!

I run a 36" and a 28" strangely it seems to cut better with the 36" IMO makes no sense, but hey!!

 

I'm curious as to what bar/chains your using? been running my 390xp with a 28"&36" and I'm convinced it cuts better with the 36" too!Strange....

Sorry for de-railing slightly,390xp is awesome saw, had use of 3120 for a time but I'm only little. Not used a 395 though. depends how big you really need to go? 390xp handles 36" fine IMO, but might be asking to much of it if used none stop all day?
