which saw

[rioterry]

Hi everyone, bit of advice needed please, im after a new saw that will lend itself to both serious firewood production but also the ability to use on an alaskan medium sized mill. Any suggestions? Many thanks.

Stihl 660 or husky 390/395

My stock answer would be ms660, but given that im suffering from the dreaded and all too common warped chain brake handle syndrome, im not too keen on it at the moment!!
