Re: Tell me about the Husky 257

Thanks guys.
Confirms what I thought.  Feels like a nice saw, & I think I'll enjoy playing with it. Just wondered if there were any quick & easy muffler mods etc worth doing.  No way it's getting a new P&C till it needs one.  Besides, locally a "big" tree would be 24" on the butt.  Mostly it'ssmaller spruce & birch.  I moved up here in '88 after spending over 10 yrs in the timber industry in the area I grew up in (Klamath Falls, OR.).  I worked from cemtral Oregon to as far south as Trukee Calif & worked in some REALLY nice timber.  When I moved up here my first thought was "These poor folks have no real trees!!!".
I have a lot of wood to cut this fall & the 257 & my new to me 026 will get a good workout.  I'm sure I will have a favorite by the time I'm done. If the Husky was as clean as the Stihl I'd probably already know the answer...
