Best 1st saw ???

[Urban-rustic]

I have recently done my cs30 and am wondering which saw to buy to get me started.

 

Ideally I want something which is going to last me a good few years, not too small to be seen as a tooth pick, but not ridiculously oversized or powerful that I can't handle it properly.

 

So, with this in mind can anyone recommend a particular model of saw ?.

 

All advice will be greatfully received.

 

Regards,

 

Pete

MS261, great ground saw with plenty of power.

Only use stihl so id say 261, or a recon 260. What saws did you use on your cs30?

Husky 550 on a 13" - 15" Bar or 560 on 15" - 18" bar .

i love my husky 346, powerful and lightweight, usually have a 15" bar on it but had a 20" on it the other day and still managed the job without too much hassle.
