Have fun, if someone can find an old loop of 33LG watch out.

I have a partial roll and 2 new loops in 33LG made.  Its in the list of choices in first post.

My friend likes the 33LG on the 16" 353 I set him up with.

050 is the poplar chain in my area not 058.   I cant give 058 away.

The stock ones are being run untouched. They are to compare to the work and race chains we are doing in the chain build off.
Do one up Art.

You would have trouble giving .050 chain away in regular .325 or 3/8", except in certain areas of the US. .050 also is a quite meaningless gauge today, as it just is .058 chain with stamped down drive tangs.

Also, I suspect many of the voters here  never really compared RS/RSC to LP/LPX, as there is no doubt the LP/LPX is the fastest cutter. The difference isn't large, but it is consistent in the comparisons I have done (21LP vs. 25RSC). I happily use both for practical cutting - but that's where it stops with .325 chain.

I suspect the votes reflect how the different chains looks, and not how they actually cuts (dangerous statement, but so be it).
