For a 395xp to use for felling large DBH hardwoods and bucking, and for getting into milling some lumber, what bar/chain? As for felling/bucking large DBH trees, this is occasional, doesn't happen very often, but I am thinking 32 inch for a bar. I have a 20 inch on my 362 (and could go to a 24 inch). As for milling with a chainsaw mill, I have no idea what size bar is needed, never done it. And then there is 3/8 pitch but what gauge... 050 versus 058 or 063?
Lastly, does a lightweight bar such as a Tsumura or other make any difference in a saw this big versus a Husky bar?
