I like falling with 70 cc saws and 28" bars, I used to always use the 66 but don't usually need it
My felling saw is an MMWS MS461 with 20, 25 or 32" bars and chains. I seriously doubt there is a better saw out there for <=24" dbh hard/softwoods. Thankfully, my woods were last harvested 75 years ago, so most of my harvestable trees are 18-24" dbh. If one of my "dominant" trees, 24-36" tree does succumb, this saw is plenty adequate to handle it. For example, I had a 28" dbh white oak tip over in an ice storm a couple years ago. I was able to take care of it with my MS461, MS361 and MS260 without any problems. Actually, most of it was done with the MS260 and MS361. Only the last bit of the main stem encouraged me to buy the MS461. The MS361 was absolutely up to the job, but it was a great excuse to buy a bigger saw.

You run a 461 yet? Can't deny a good 46, but a 461 is a different animal
Not yet. I have 660, 661 ,2 046s. I have a lot of spare 046 parts including a nos tank with screw cap. Did I mention the 046s are screw caps? I run 24" mostly and 20". Did I mention screw caps?

As everyone else has neglected to say it I will be the first. Be SAFE out there buddy, remember to look up often, falling branches can hurt, or worse. Please report back in when done for the day.
