Impresssed by the power this saw has compared to the 460 Rancher I own. Gnaws through red oak and curly maple just fine. Less fatigue. So it’s my daily driver till I hit something big.
I bought this to replace my original bar that I had for years for my husky. My saw was not allowing me to cut on angles as the chain would sag in the rail. I tried to file down any mushrooming on the bar rail and I thought about buying a tool to crimp the rail groove down to proper width again, but then decided a new bar and chain should be tried first. This Oregon bar and chain worked great!
Never used red armor but they say it’s good I’ll give it a try
