Best felling saw

[simonthetreeman]

Hi just wanting peoples opinion on which saw would be best for felling, i am thinking Stihl 441 or 044 and 20 inch bar? Sound about right? Thanks.

What are you felling will depend on what size of saw and bar.

husky 272 18"

Felling 50-60ft pine trees, loads of space to fell in to.

I got told, when I started thirty yrs back, Stihls for climbing and big saws, husky's for everything else.

 

Bought a couple of the x-torx's this year and wouldn't swop them. Saying that, I've loved the 254xps, the 357xps so it's a natural progrssion

Do most of my felling with a Husky 372xp . If it's a big tree Stihl 066 .

You've obviously never picked up a MS361 then!?

461 not 441 . . . but if you can find a good second hand 44 Magnum then that'd do too!

Why a 20" to fell 15" should be plenty.

Husky 560 and 18" b&c will take care of those pines! And you'll have finished, cleared up and had a brew in the same time as it would take to fell them with a Stihl
