[QUOTE="Rogersville Farmer, post: 1689920, member: 25619"] It is a high price saw, but I absolutely recommend the Stihl MS 261! With the right and sharp chain It will out cut with less effort anything up to the Stihl 440 or 460 and most other brands. (I have a 261 and a 460). However, It is a full pro saw. Due to the high torque of this saw, the horsepower rating is misleading when comparing competitors saws even the Stihl homeowner and mid grade saws. Since you already have a Stihl MS 460, I doubt you are going to be happy with a lot of saws if you were cutting firewood or a large tree. The Stihl MS 261 is light weight, handy, and will really cut with the right Stihl chisel chain. However, only trimming small branches and wanting something at low costs, my advise granted does not fit your situation. But would not even be a consideration for me for the few times needing to cut larger fallen limbs, occasional larger tree and fire wood. Sometimes firewood comes available when you least expect it.
