Here's a 357 I did

Very nice Gunner.
You got 1/1000 of your firewood done for the yr now too .
Cut a few seasoned cherry cookies last week with a few 346's, that's some nice smelling wood, made me want to do some smoking.
Any fish hitting the dam yet.

Nice Mason. You didn't run your 572 in this group?

I can tomorrow if you wanted me to, just kept it stihl only today.

The 500i is the only saw that I haven’t yet had the urge to modify. I’d be willing to bet that a ported 461 and a stock 500i would be a close contest.

Right, that's the real question. For the price of a 500i you can have a ported 462. Which would you pick?

I have a 500i. I don’t have a 462

Thanks Brett

I see what you did there lol.
I used to hit the Little Man. early season, they come in and go back out. It's fun hooking them silver bullets in there, but unless your tackle heavy good luck pulling one out of there.

Huskyboy has a stihl of a day .
So did you add a little to the time of the 064 for cutting out .
Great vids BTW.

Haha, believe it or not the 064’s last loaded heavy cut was faster than the first cut that cut out. That surprised me. It’s got some horsepower lol. I’ll do the 572 for you guys.

For their weight they are a sweet saw.
Any chance you have a stock or lightly modded 7910 there too.

Just so happen to have a mike lee 7910 here with a 046 slug stuffed in it and she’s broken in...

 

[huskyboy]

I’ll go out on a limb and say I prefer to use the ported 441 for working all day over the 461. It is definitely more complex to work on... however it’s a better worksaw for several reasons, enough to overlook the added complexity a bit imo. Does this mean the 461 is bad? Hell no. Just my opinion.

 

[rumatt]

Reasons being?

AV and mtronic?

Did you happen to weigh both pistons, Mason? You running it single ring or double?

 

[AlfA01]

I have a 500i. I don’t have a 462

Slacker.... Lol. How's the 500i running, Mike?

 

[huskyboy]

AV and mtronic?

Yes those two, also it is a bit better balanced/handles better, the filter stays cleaner far longer, av limiters are stronger and makes close to the same power despite giving up 6.5ccs.

Have to ask mike that, I’m not sure the specifics of his build but I do know it runs very well
