Which self tuning saw for 24" buried in oak, novice user?

Go!

 

[pbillyi69]

huh?

Dolmar PS-7310 with gutted SLR tuned right below the coil rpm limit , quality brand chain 3/8" full chisel full skip round ground, 7 pin sprocket - just WOW!!!!

She tunes herself as You turn the needles!

Something in the 60-70 ish cc range with mtronic or autotune

Just read the self tuning part in the title.
I’d have to suggest an ms400 or ms462

 

[2000ssm6]

That is 70cc territory; 462. The 500i should be considered if you ever plan on a longer bar.

 

[Ketchup]

How much money do you want to waste?

 

[karrl]

I’ve always wanted to try a 572.

 

[dall]

592 with a 7 pin and dull chain should work good

Maybe.

If they can keep it running.

 

[Ryan Browne]

462, 500i, 565, 572

Personally I'd see which brand the person has better gut feelings about and suggest they go that direction.

 

[hseII]

Go!

Echo CS620 or 7310.

 

[farminkarman]

Echo CS620 or 7310.

Last time I checked, neither of those are self-tuning.

 

[farminkarman]

I’m not too fond of the 5-series huskies anymore, so I would second what was said earlier…an ms400 or 462.

 

[Wilhelm]

Why self tuning?

 

[Kiwioilboiler]

Why self tuning?

So @davidwyby doesn't have to constantly go do it?

Not mine but as little as possible

Why not? I was thinking 565. Dude has a cabin in the mountains and a 450 husky he got barely used. The stuff we were cutting I wouldn’t want less than 70cc stock. My XS xpw was pretty fun. I do have a treemonkey 359 I could sell him if he can learn to tune but I think his eyes were glassing over. Could teach him to overbuck and run 20”.
