I misread it 1st time through. I thought I seen something about converting a regular 3/8 sprocket to picco.  Losing my freaking mind as I get older.

(Mostly testing the alternative quote method - it works!  Thanks!)

I suppose that with enough time, you could grind down 3/8 drive links to match low profile sprockets.  Not sure why you would want to.  A lot of guys would like to go the other way, to run 3/8 low profile chain on larger saws.

LOL you got what I meant backwards. I was saying a standard 3/8 rim converted to picco.  I thought that was what I read in a post.  I was not talking about chain.

I used the 16 inch, 3/8ths LP bar made for a 338XP top handle along with an Oregon standard 3/8ths rim.
Oregon only makes one 3/8ths rim and it does both standard and LP.

@rms61moparman  Mike do you know of a 60dl bar in LP instead of 56DL?  I'm thinking 56 is it unless use a reg 60dl bar.

Kev, got the roll a few months back and have been using it on the ms261c. Works great and cuts fast.  Have the 338xp bar just need to make a loop for the partner/huskies

Just throwing this out there. I have come across a 60dl 3/8LP bar for McCullough 18" . Just need to see if it can be made to used on small husky type mount. Might need a tail mount message.

me I would just use 56dl Like you Mike. Just trying to help others find a 60dl bar.
