what chain is best for milling?
I running a 660 with 20,25,36,42 bars, from the 25 up for milling I have been running 3/8. 0.063 skip tooth semi chisel rip chain works great, but just curious what the difference/performance pros and cons of each type of chain is. or anybody's experience
 
I've been using skip square since that's what I have on a roll. I've gotten better finishes with the square ground than I did with semi chisel at 10°.
 
I run a 42" bar with full comp chain at 25 degrees. Finish is not great. I know though that it is 100x better than a 33" bar that I have running skip tooth and 25 degrees.
