NGK like Ray benson said. I used to run the Bosch till they all started coming from China. NAPA a good a place as any to get them.

Stihl spark plug hard to come by

The Stihl brand plug I understand. Never had any in our shop yet. NGK is that hard to find? That amazes me as it is all we have used for years.

Both the NGK and Bosch plugs are available all over the internet (ebay, amazon, etc) and at most auto parts stores.
Bosch started getting expensive a couple of years ago, so I have been using NGK ever since.
Never had any problems with either one.

Why? Best price for NGK in these parts.

I used to buy a lot of stuff at NAPA, good people at my local store, but they have gotten expensive.
O'Reilly Auto Parts beats them on price most of the time around here.
Best to check around and see who has the best pricing in your area.
