I have a new 461R if interested.

Prolly too rich for my blood. More like used already ported or beater to be rebuilt/ported.

I have a 2175XS and 2188SSS I may part with.

I don’t really run stock saws…

…I ran some stihls up at slashers and chiselbits, nothing jumped out at me…but didn’t run them a lot either. Mostly interesting in low rpm grunt for falling. Like a 288 but lighter. The saws in the 372/461 weight class have more ccs in stihl.

I don’t see a 461 doing anything your 2175xs won’t. The 2175 will be easier on the hands due to the spring av.

My mmws 461 was a beast in hardwood with a 28” full skip, didn’t use it much though. Going back to a ported 044 for now due to getting a deal on it.

I believe a ported 500i is going to be the answer for any 70-80cc needs.
