For the size timber they were meant, they don't handle too bad as long as your bar is 72" or less. A full wrap handle would help, if you can find one. And you will hate the non-AV, but the power leaves an 880 in the dust hard.View attachment 883699
View attachment 883700Came in today. 66mm piston and big clutch swap. I’m 6’3 and 150 lbs. this thing is like trying to handle an old iron head harley at 90 with a blown front tire!
It gives me some big respect for the men that earned their living with a saw like this!
Nice!View attachment 883699

They get smoothed out better than 070 when loaded, my dealer and i have had long conversations about this. Seems like the bigger piston helps in cancelling out the vibes and slowing down rpm due to its added weightI’ve run non AV saws quite a bit, but I’ve never run one this big. I’m sure it’ll smooth out when it’s loaded. It certainly feels like it has some real guts!
I've run most of the modern big saws, surprisingly i find 090 smoother than 070/075 and the other range counterparts. Even 084 gives me tingle on my fingers after a full day of use, 1200/1201 is my favourite big saw in terms of AV and handlingThe 090 vibes DO NOT "smooth out" under a load, I can assure you of that. I've run a ton of other big saws, 797, 895, Homie 2100, 3100, 900g and nothing comes close to the vibes of a non AV 090. Now this is of course in big wood with long bars, there is no need of it in small to medium wood IMHO.

Ms382 is lighter, snappier and has the same tq with more hp. All in all its an improved sawIf the MS382 is like my old 038 Mag ll, then it will be pretty similar to a 440. My 12mm 044 had a slight edge on that 038 mag, but I only noticed it when cutting side by side, otherwise when cutting firewood, I could not tell the difference.
