This saw is pretty impressive! You will not be disappointed!
The 309 500i performs like a race car. Chain speed is extreme. The saw has improved torque also. Leaning on it while cutting a 32" white oak log and the saw did not bog at all. The saw only has 3 tanks thru it, can't wait to see when it breaks in. Great service, very happy, ordered the 261 also.
I've been running a stock 500i for several years now, its like night and day!!! The black dyed looks great!! I think I need another one at least. Oh, and the customer service is spot on too. Thanks for making such an awesome product. I will be ordering again!!
Saw is everything I wanted, 30 in. Stihl bar full house square grind, better hold on tight. Great job, after week of cutting walnuts in the midwest it's definitely a stump maker. Feels right and throttle response is amazing. Thanks
Get one you will not be disappointed. This saw cuts like a light Sabre. I work at a tree company and it has become everyone’s favorite saw, power to spare!
