Thread: Stihl chainsaw choice

I have had a MS180C for a few years now.
Replaced a Husqvarna 45 that had done a lot of work.
Went with this as at the time liked it better than the equivalent Husky.
Liked the "finger" wheel chain tensioner it is bloody quick.
Main reason I got it is that it balances well bar doesn't drop or come up when holding in one hand.
I use a bigger Husqvarna to knock down big gums then do a lot with the little Stihl.
Agree with one comment earlier the chains are pissy little things and you have to allow for that.
