    I finished my Stihl ms261c project with PS chain ,new bar, nos 8 tooth rim,and muffler mod.That chain is the sharpist out-of-the box chain I ever saw. Next is to go through my 246 huskys. I have collected 3 of them. These are my favorite saws. I plan to re-piston ,muffler mod, remove base gasket,and match the ports to the intake/exhaust gaskets along with new bars, chains,and rims. After I run the 261 with PS chain and like it I want to see if I can find the bar and rim to use it on the 246's. Has anyone used this chain on a husky ? I will try to get pics .

    I've drilled the oil hole a little bigger on a stihl bar and used a regular 3/8 sprocket on a 550 husky with no problems.
