    I have a 55 Husky, 18" bar. My BIL has a Stihl 066 Magnum, 20+" bar. The difference in performance is staggering the Stihl looks like it is cutting through a wet paper bag....BUT I would hate to lug a bigger saw around when you are cutting household fire sized logs. For me, 18" bar and around 55 to 64cc is just fine.

    I love the KTM line Drover...

    we are also looking at the stihl 291 and 311 because of the cash back. anything around 40cc and bigger would be good for firewood
