Stan, not to be a dikk, but use the search function. The first thread with 6 billion questions was ok, but this is #2. There are millions of posts in the archieves of AS, just search for them.
If you want side by side specs, be really nice to sawtroll or go to

Weight
Point of the matter is, the dude is stumping. For stumping you don't really care about the weight factor cause the saw is pretty much laying down when your cutting. All you really have to do is hang on and twist away. Lets remember that ya'll. The dude should just get an 880 and be done with it. That'll be enough power for him to cut any stump out there, and when he hits a stone he can take a nice long break while sharpening allllllllllllllll those teeth, lmfao... :help:

Don't let him scare you away... he's a nice guy deep down.
Search sometimes sucks on AS... but there's a bunch of stuff out there... Some guys even go to the extreme of saying "I've already searched"!
Now go read the Prince thread end to end.. oh wait, forgetaboutit - the end is missing, as it the middle.. (Inside joke).

Ok, maybe the wording was wrong. Trying to be funny, didn't mean to be mean.
We get a lot of new guys that seem to ask all the same questions on a regular basis.
Just don't post a "what kind of oil thread"....That will cause all hell to break loose around here.
Truth of the matter, all of the saws metioned here or there, are all good saws. It boils down to what is comfortable in your hands, meets your needs and has local dealer support for services. The rest is just fun bickering here on AS.
BTW, FWIW I had an 044 that was stolen. That was my favorite mid sized saw at that time, but I didn't run a 7900 when I had it.

Saw Troll is the expert on saw specs
But at the risk of ridicule, I'll venture that the ms440 has about 5.5hp, and that the ms460 has about 6hp, and my saws are all pretty much stock, and it turns out to be a good thing. Some nosy federal inspector made me open up the mufflers on a few of my saws not too long ago when I was subbing to a logging company up in Lake Arrowhead. My saws were stock and I was ok, but a few hoyshot loggers with modded mufflers got fined big time!
Be careful with either of these saws if you buy one.

It's cool, I've been known to be a douchebag a time or three during the week.
