"Chisel Chain / Depth Gauge:
When you're ready to cut, the depth gauge can be set to the depth of the cut then the carbide tooth chain chisels through layers of material"
Carbide chain, too?

22" bars on Poulans in 3/8's?
A loop of generic semi 3/8" x .050" x 70dl from a local shop is only 15-18 bucks made on the spot. So, not worth my trouble. I get chains shortened there often but the .058" guage shoots it in the head.
Yeah it is an odd size, . . . .
Yeah it is an odd size, almost like the .325" x .O68" x 62dl they specify for a Stihl MS 250. Is there a reason to put the heaviest gauge chain with the shortest pitch on such a small bar? If it makes sense to someone else, please explain.
For 20 chains it might be worth buying an .058 bar. maybe it would run in a worn .050?

They make it odd like that so Joe homeowner wont be buying his replacement chains at Home Depot or TSC etc.
Keeps the sheep coming back to the barn that way.
