Brand new ms 391 today

Thats cause most dealers are stealerships

 

You are right there clemson. Dexter you ask me a question a while back on what chains I run. I but the yellow tabs. What is th green and what is the difference? I can't cut the safety chains that come on them.

 

Green has the double raker design for low kick back. And there semi chisel cutters

Didnt understand what you asked but you can cut the second hump with a cutoff wheel but its a waste of time...just buy the yellow chain.

 

Keep the 391 and spend the extra 400 bills on a beater 460 somewhere down the road. 391 is going to capably make a lot of firewood.

 

Honestly I agree with lukem

 

Too bad I am not in the market for that 460 I want Dex thats a good price. And id be over it in no time if I were in the market for one now.

 

Yep you right clemson thanks lukem! Tell me about your 362

 

Boy dexter them is some buys You going to get 1 I have seen good things on the 362 What you think about them ?

 

460 is on my list too. DANG!

 

But for a firewood cutter living in SC I somehow think I am good with the saws listed in my sig line. Esp since I only burn 2.5 cords a yr

 

What size bar do you run on the 362 what all did mastermind do to it?

 

He probably lay runs a 12" bar on it. I think there is a video somewhere of him runing a husky 395 with a 16" bar. Truth.

He likes um like light sabers.

 

Dexter you and clrmson has got some real horse saw !! I was looking at yall list wow !! I would like to run that 362 in a tree

 

Go get em' Kinis, give the members a taste of what an 'old' saw can do! DON'T FORGET POST A VIDEO FOR ALL TO SEE!

Tim

 

If I wouldnt have been hosting a reunion yesterday I would have been on the road to get those 2 saws Kenis.

 

Just remember that the 391 is going to feel like a rocketship compared to the old 250 in bigger wood. Unless you have the need for a 28" bar, a 441 is a luxury...not a must-have (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Stock for stock, there isn't going to be a lot of performance difference in a 362 vs. a 391. The 362 will handle better and be a little faster, but it isn't going to blow the doors off a 391 by any stretch of the imagination. My neighbor has a 390 and it runs pretty in < 20" hardwood...it was right there with my old 361 when we were bucking up a BIG oak limb that fell in his yard.

The 362 is a real good saw and I wouldn't be without mine, but it is honestly probably more saw than I need for the wood I cut...and I'm OK with that.

If you get the itch for more power somewhere down the line, get a 70cc saw. If you get the power itch again...send it off to have it ported by a reputable builder.

You did just fine getting a 391. No need to loose any sleep over it. Pull the rope and cut some wood.
