<p>Hi Dave,</p>

<p>Much depends on budget and if you are looking for second user or brand new! The 261 and 362 suffer from weak clutch drum bearings but not sure if this will show up with heavy domestic use!</p>

<p>The 365 comes in a number of variants but is a solid lump of a saw and will do what you want. If it is the Xtorq, the saw can be easily converted to a 372!</p>

<p>I started with a 346xp 50cc and is a ripper, very fast, I then got a 357xp and is the same but faster but did modify them extensively!</p>

<p> </p>

<p>A pro 50cc saw will run a 16" bar with ease, the weight of the saw will also be easier on the back, especially if you will be a weekend warrior!</p>

<p>The 550xp has a decent turn of speed, nice balance and is light!</p>

<p>I have little experience of the echo/Dolmar range!</p>

<p>Cheers</p>
