I finally got to run and compare the chains at the GTG. First and foremost, in soft or clean wood it isn't a comparison in either full comp or skip. No chain I have run for my personal use can cut with these. None of my round ground cuts as quick. Also, I don't know if it really dulls any quicker that round ground in not so perfect wood. In hard wood(oak, locust, hickory) it still cuts quicker, just doesn't seem to be as much of a difference. I guess it now comes down to cost to sharpen and learn to file versus round filing. One of my chains went down in flames at the GTG(look for the pic of the nail), but doesn't look all that bad. All in all I would say it's a great deal. Thanks for the chain.
