I have a 365,372 and the new 576.

 

The 576 is amazing. It's a little heavier on paper i think but it feels so well balanced you don't notice. Done some big timber with the 576 and cuts very well. Have a 24" bar on mine which is a little too long for balance but its still ok on the power. Put an 18" bar on it and it flys through wood but the balance is still off (a 20" would solve it). If i got another one i'd get it with autotune just as i know people with it on other saws and they love it.

 

I've not used the STIHL but i have a lot of Husky saws and this saw is really good feels almost as powerful as the 390.

Laughing. Hoping to purchase a 576 from Jonesies new emporium when I go visiting next week.

Love my 346 but want something a little bigger for the windblow etc

i used a 576 for about two months and thought it was a cracking saw.felled some deicent sized beech with it and had no trouble. i have used a 441 but it was only a few hours and that seemed like a good saw but from what ive done with the husky id vote for that.

I would if buying go for the 576 auto tune.

The 441 is a good saw though so....

I would if you buy on your dealers,manufacturing preference or price as they both do as they say on the tin.

The 372 is ok ,I like mine but would replace it with a 576 if it was being used in the woods daily.

I reckon the saw will have maybe 20 hrs use a year and 99% of that time firewood.
