morewood ran the 562xp in a 14'' redoak log against his oem stock ms440 and the 440 got owned by the little guy. those ported 562's just aint right,awsome just is a big understatement. really for a firewood guy the 562 could be a one saw plan. several members ran the 562 and were impressed to say the least.

My stock 044 ran a 3.06 in the build off cant with an off the roll RSC chain. What did that 562 run again?

Not too surprising against a 440. I bet it was a different story with J's 044. Did anyone put a 24" or 28" on them to see how they compared?

Oh snap

i believe both saws were wearing 20'' bars with full comp chain. im sure the 562 would do fine with a 24'' bar but it just doesnt balance for squat with it. it gets real nose heavy.

No. :/

I suppose I could stop by and make a cut in the morning though.

that stock 044 is equivilant to a ported ms440 so 3 tenths behind it aint too shabby wouldnt you say.

It's a good runner, no doubt.

But it also had ur build off chain on it too.

I think I recognized most of you guys from the Hatfields and McCoys mini-series a few weeks ago.

Looks like you guys had a blast. Thanks for the great pictures Young.... finally a GTG thread with quality pics. Names to go along with the pics would be great.

Are you using a 562xp now in your professional lineup?

I just went and looked those up because I am not familiar with them, and to get an idea what the damage would be to own one. 60 ccs, MSRP + a pro porting job would bring them in at about a grand even.

I think it would have to be a professional guy, as in making money with it, to really justify getting one (until they have been out long enough for used ones much cheaper to hit the market). I bet they are real nice though. What does that revboost feel like?

Thanks! Wish I could have made the GTG, maybe next time, good enough seeing all the good pics and vids though!

Now is when I really miss not being there. Sittin around the fire, havein a few beverages, BS'n with everbody, and maybe singin a tune or two with Mike. Instead I'm sittin @ my puter, drinkin some beers & wondering why did Young take so many pics of Wendell:msp_wub: :confused2: At least they're all frontal shots.:msp_scared:

The results aren't surprising to me. The 562xp stock is a good running saw, but no stronger than a 362 and definitely not stronger than a good stock 70cc saw in small or large wood. So the 562 is like any 60cc saw, a great firewood saw and small felling saw. Nothing wrong there but not living up to the hype IMHO.

BTW Looks like everyone had a great time, wish I could have made it.

I've not seen a 362 comparison. Have you?
