I’m looking for an 026, MS260, 346xp or similar. Prefer it to have an OEM cylinder/piston but would consider one with aftermarket pieces if it’s priced right. Obviously price range varies depending on condition. I’m not opposed to a project saw either for the right price. Thinking of switching things up and moving the 361 at some point and running a 50cc and 7xcc saw combo.(at least I told my wife I’d move the 361 ). Might end up with a new MS261 but figured I’d see if anything of interest is available.
Just an idea. It sounds like you really like the 361. What about getting the 361 ported and just swap bars for big stuff. Ported it would handle a 24" for occasional use for big stuff. If on a budget a 20" can do larger stuff with creativity but takes more time. Mark
I have considered that, I have an extra OEM cylinder that I could send out to have ported. I guess my thought is the 50cc saw is a little lighter and could handle the majority of what I need to do. Honestly it’s not often I’d need a 70cc saw, more of a want than a need.
