Yes. I would consider it pro grade. Compared to what’s made today, I’d consider the 2 series pro saws.The 246 in that chart is not an XP. Is that still considered a "pro grade" saw?

Splitting hairs.... it falls under the 262 umbrella/familyI didn't see the 261 in there either, and you know I ain't talking no stihl.
Not trying to, many don't know.Splitting hairs.... it falls under the 262 umbrella/family
Then there’s this obscure model that very few people know about called the 288. “Know” as in own or have ran for more than a cookie. Pretty solid following by those in the inner circle.
It’s OK at that, as long as you have the low top cover and Full wrap handle. both those are required for it to balance and be an acceptable limbing saw. The hi top cover blocks the field of view when limbing overhead, and should only be used for felling and bucking. You have to accessorize according to the task at hand.Never heard of it.
Is it a limbing saw with easy start assist?
