Squisher, I've tried the 24" bars while in the tree and find them to be too awkward and clumsy. It's not often that a 24" bar is required while in the tree. The 18" bar is just too short for most of my firewood bucking work. You really should try a 20" bar.....just once. Borrow one from a...

Thanks, my friend. 72dl it is. Joel

The 562 seems to me as being something of a do-all saw. It's not too big to be carried into the tree, and it's not too small for firewood bucking. Should I end up with the 562XP it will likely be fitted up with a 20" bar/chain. I like the 20" bar. I prefer it over any other, but it's not...

Tucker, Thanks for your input on this subject. I kinda figured that the 562 would probably handle the 3/8" x .058 chain, but just wasn't sure. And I do understand that .050 gauge chain would work better in most cases, but I'm trying to establish a set of saws that all use the same pitch and...

Thanks for the great feedback on the 576XP, guys. I'm now leaning toward something a bit bigger, and the 576XP looks like something I'm after. Bailye's answered my question. The reason the .058 gauge bars aren't listed under the 562XP is because Husqvarna doesn't recommend this chain on saws...

Tucker, I'm rather new to the Husqvarna saws. Don't know much about them, as I've always owned Echo saws up until now. I checked out the .058 gauge bars at TreeStuff.com and found that they don't list the 562XP. 20" Oregon Power Match Chainsaw Bar (208RNDD009) Uses 72 drive links of 3/8"...

Tucker, Does the saw's drive sprocket accept either gauge? If so, changing out the bar would be a great option for me. Joel

I'm looking for a saw that will replace a smaller one that I used for years. The 550XP looked appealing to me, but I'd like a saw that uses the same 3/8" pitch x .058 gauge chain that I use on my 395XP. Using the same chain will allow me to purchase a roll of chain and make my own loops for...
