Stihl
4.7

"The MS261 is also perfect for a single saw operation if you stay under 20" diameter."
"Have you considered a 261? A little more money, but tons of power and very light."
"I just bought the 261cm in 18in for the same stuff on our 40 acres."
"Third saw? Sell the 271/291, buy a 261."
"They are both good but the farm boss is particularly suited for what you seem to have described."
"Oh, for that job, Stihl Farm Boss, and learn how to keep the chains sharp."
