ms 462

[PA Dan]

I think my hybrid and 461 are fairly close. Hybrid is probly ahead by a little bit.
I ran the hybrid against a ported 462 with the same chain in a 24” cant.
462 has a ways to go before I’d consider using it over either of the two saws I have

I was thinking about how my Hybrid is going to hang with my 461.

Each saw is different, who did your 461?

Randy is doing it soon.

Showdown time

I'm in no rush for a 462 or 500i, just having fun with my hybrid I recently OEM rebuilt.
'92 066 Mag RL with 064 flywheel with covers and a Husky 162 top handle.
She weighs the same as a 461 and with her port #'s she don't need any mods besides saving a half pound by replacing the Mag dual port muffler with a gutted standard one.

Power wise ?

The 462 definately spools up faster, I'd like to see them buried with a 28" bar before I'd say which one is more powerful.

I haven’t ran a 462 yet. Stock for stock they definitely look better. Ported, I wonder if there are more gains to be had from the 441?

Who knows..they all do the job.

If it lasts as long as my 044 (and I believe it will), it will be worth every penny!

As my Dad used to say "Quality will be remembered long after the price paid is forgotten". I honestly don't remember what I paid for the 044, but I do remember it seemed like a lot at the time. The 462 is a game changer.

As my Dad used to say "Quality will be remembered long after the price paid is forgotten".one of the best things a father could say .

Just put a 28" oregon reduced weight on this 462..feels 10x better than a solid bar..not as mushy either.

Ill run it this week and see how it feels.

The one I ran had a 28 es light, didn’t feel bad but I only made a couple cuts with it

You’re probably right, a pound, a second, a couple cookies, put it back on the shelf. lol

It's not important after you get past acting like a little girl about a chainsaw..pick one and use the fukker.

True Dat Ryan! They all cut

28" reduced weight is what many loggers round here use. Including myself for a LONG time. Not even just for timber size, but to reduce bending over so much.

Let me know how you feel about it, honestly after using it a bit. I value your input...

If you put a 24" bar on a 60cc saw is what this 462 feels like with a standard 28" bar.

Best I can come up with.

So my 28” and 34” light weights would be nose heavy. Wonder how it would work on the small mill?

 

[PA Dan]

Would you really want to run it on a mill?

 

[huskyboy]

I’d rather run a manual adjustment carb on a mill imho than autotune/mtronic. Just my gut feeling. Can set it rich to protect it.

 

[Czed]

LMAO, karma works.
Anyway nice vid! How many tanks on that 462? She screams

Ain't me that's some European
shortbar fella
I'm too lazy to run around a tree like that.

If it won’t hold up on there I’d call it a fail. I milled a lot of stuff with a 34” bar on 460s and some with 372s and 044. 20” wide stuff and down. I used a 357 husky some too
