New Saw Comparisons: Husqvarna 543XP to Echo CS 361P to Stihl MS 241 CM

[Canuck123]

The other saw I have in the photo is a Dolmar 5105 H, which is a really nice saw also. It is a powerful saw, balances well with a 16" B/C and runs 3/8 chain with ease.

Great one plan firewood saw, at a good price point. A little heavy for its size, but it is built with quality and durability in mind, for me the trade off in weight is a non issue.

The 5105-H is a 50 c.c. Class Hot Rod (13,800 rpm.) . The 543 is a Prograde 40 c.c. Class saw that requires 6-8 tanks of fuel to loosen up . It then is a capable performer for small felling & climbing &  bucking . The 241 is more of a 40 c.c.Prograde Class saw also , however a more than adequate fire wood saw ! I own both the Dolly & Husky , the op will have to handle both of the 40 class saws to see what fits his needs the Best . He probably has since this thread is an old !
