Harvest King bar oil.

[BargeMonkey]

I bought 2x pallets of oil right before covid came, about gone. Been shopping around, couldn't get in on the 4.49 TSC oil scheme, wondering if anyone has used Harvest King oil ? Been buying the Cobra oil from Irving, almost 2.00 a gal diff. 210gal per pallet out the door for 1495.00

I am still working through my TSC stock but know a guy that has been buying HK at Runnings I think. Sounded like it works as intended, he does a lot of chainsaw milling and wasn't complaining

Harvest king brand is what most of the agricultural oil products I use here. It's what the local farm store carries. I've used the bar oil,  seems like bar oil. I've used the 10 -30 diesel oil as bar oil in a pinch because I just needed to finish.

Barge,

Was the harvest king oil deal at Runnings?  At that price, I may try and split a pallet with a buddy

 I've used Harvest King, it's what the local farm and fleet store carries. It's bar oil🤷 I'm not a connoisseur of fine bar oils like EHP, probably because I mostly cut smaller trees and use shorter bars.

If you bought a pallet they would knock 5% off, brings it down to 7.12 a gal which isn't bad money. Bar oil prices are all over the place, 7-10-18 a gal. I think there is a surplus of stuff and no one's buying, half the reason I've seen some of the sales. The good traveller AW46 hydraulic oil was on sale at tractor last week, friend of mine and I cleaned the one store out, 30 bucks a pail I'm not gonna argue. The guys like you want 74 pails ? ALL OF THEM 😆. I think stuff is going back to pre-covid madness levels. 87 gas an on-road diesel are only .14 cents apart rack price, fuels not moving.

Red fuel was 2.85 yesterday, I was in prepaying propane, so I went ahead and bought some too.

I've got a race to go to in a couple weeks on the other side of NH. I've wanted to go to Runnings for a while, might just call ahead and make this happen. Thanks!

They just put a new TSC in Stamford, I would love to see a Runnings down here, my closest one is Gloversville or way out in Rome. Would put TSC right out of business down here. Clothes, farm stuff, tools, guns, that and the Restaurant Depo / Costco and I wouldn't have to shop anywhere else.

Barge,

There is a farm type store in Salisbury, NH. It's called the barn store. One day I sold a pickup and had some extra cash...I went in, bought my wife meds for her sheep, then I got myself a new chainsaw, a pair of work pants, and a new pump shotgun! On the way out I hit the breakfast/lunch bar and got a breakfast sandwich,my kinda place!  They also do ag buildings, but I only sold a pickup and didn't make THAT much money on it.  I'm kinda glad it's kinda out of my way to get there, I'd have a lot less spare money if it were closer

[Peter Drouin]

I'm going to check that place out sometime.

chep and Peter, we may have to have a NewEngland contingent of the ForestryForum at the Claremont Runnings!  

Chep thank you for the vote of confidence on the hk oil.  I'm not lookin for NASA super lube at that price, but don't want to kill a good bar or chain early either

Another FF Member here. I picked up 4 gallons from the Claremont store last week and a 6 pack of husky mix oil

Andy, I should be there on Friday the 20 to get mine... As long as we still have a car to race that night (it is the real reason I'm heading to Claremont)

Bought some HK branded premixed 50/1 fuel it was on sale. So I took it to the cabin for some fuel for the chainsaw I leave up there. Dumped the old mix out put in some fresh fuel and it ran fine. Something else besides motor oil, bar oil, hydraulic fluid I've used.
