What's your favorite 70cc saw?

[Duce]

Ported 372oe and 572 muffler mod only. As long as chains are sharp either will do. I am just a firewood old guy.

McCulloch 7-10...you can feel and hear the power even hours after shutting it down.

Jonsered 2172 and Husqvarna 372. Run well and feel balanced in the hands. I run 24 Sugi with a square ground chain. Great combination.

Still this one for me.

CFB MS461R with the Webber wrap.

My other favorite is still a MMWS MS461R That he did the thread on way back in 2011 or 2012.

I’ve got Burger King commercial hands- these are the OE small diameter & are perfect.

The Pro Safety Wrap on the 660 in the background is a full as wel.

I <3 Full Wraps.

close enough

85cc isnt in the 70cc saw class, its in the 80cc saw class

The ms500 is still less than 80cc's, so it fits in the 70cc class, by the skin of its teeth

There is less difference in displacement between a 064 and 500i… than there is between a 500i and 044. Would you say it’s more fair to compare a 500i to a 064 than a 044? Maybe it comes down to opinion?

 

[MustangMike]

It is all opinion, but power head weight should also be a consideration.

When folks say it goes by the tens ... period ... I told them that my 362 (59cc) runs real great for a 50 cc saw ... and they screamed bloody murder! Everyone just said it was a 60 cc saw ... close enough!

I'm not muddyin any waters here Mason, the OP asked for pics of 70cc saws.
How many cc's in the MS500 ?
79.1cc

How many cc's is the 064 ?
85cc

Think back, was "I" any one of those "they" that screamed ?

We all could muddy up any clear water, very easily in most cases, but for this thread, it looks like any saw that has a displacement of at least 70cc but not 80cc or above fits

I mean I still like a 272. No love?

272 had its day ........... have you ran a ported 462, or a ported 500i ?
My 372's just hang from a rafter now ............. never thought that would happen

Is that 372 ported?

 

[PA Dan]

Is that 372 ported?

I'd be very surprised if it wasn't...

Ported 272 w/a 28 has been my favorite so far, but my CFB hybrid might be shaking up the status quo. For a 32+, my 372W claims that spot. I feel like a 461 is too close to an 80cc saw to include it with the 70’s.
