MS462 vs. 372XP

[Definitive Dave]

Cole came down today and we ran a lot of saws

All videos in fresh, wet 10" x 10" Poplar like mother nature intended.

Part One: We ran his brand new MS462 with a 16" bar and a 60DL square hand filed play chain and then my well worn stock Husky 372xp with a fresh square work ground chain. Both of us ran each.

then we swapped chains and did it again
also upcoming is chain tests for his 7900 and race 390, some runs from my 288, Redfin 661 and KD/Nolder 394 and EC3120, big bunches of fun with some fast saws

So whatcha think of the new fangled 462?

The cut times may be close, IDK, but that Stihl sounds better in the cut.

 

[Definitive Dave]

I like the 462, I liked the 572 when I ran it back in march as well but this is light and feel more nimble to me.
right after these cuts before we swapped chains Cole thought the Husky was faster and I thought the Stihl was faster.
We laughed and knew it was gonna be a fun day

Looks like it’s all about the chain.

Dang, I missed Mio. Did you make it Dave? The weather wasn’t great up here.

 

[AlfA01]

Been my sig since day one. I find it somewhat shocking that @Definitive Dave owns a stock saw

Looks like a fun time!!

Nice Vids!!

Ready to cut in hand
With 16s
How's the weight difference

it has a sticker on the side that says Stihl Demo I use it as a point of reference stock saw in videos, runs great despite being old and ugly
