Anything that works is good

[thetoolnut]

Stihl MS241 C-M with 16'' bar and a Husqvarna 372XP with 20'' and 24'' bars. I'd love to have a Stihl MS261 C-M with an 18'' bar, a Stihl MS661 C-M with a 28'' bar and a Stihl MS880 with a 36'' bar. Full skip chisel chains from Americaland are the only way to go on big saws with a pro set of felling dogs.

The current setup up has changed a bit but the above is a combo that can get a serious amount of work done with an unsurpassed reliability rate.

 

 

ATM it is

T540XP

You can never knock a 066.
