For big bucks you can go with the MS200. I recommend you check out the Redmax 4500 though.
There are 4 remanufactured 401's on e-bay right now.
I love the sawtroll but he misses the boat on this one. The 401 doesn't "suffer" from anything. If it were a Husky he would be singing it's praises and it would be the greatest thing since pockets on shirts!!!

Still hunting ... tried a used 338xpt ... but prefer rear handle control.
I think this is your problem.

I would use my muffler modded with a new ring in it Husqvarna 44 Rancher.I like this saw.
Heya dipstick ... I did buy a saw. I bought a nice used 338xpt ... as I stated earlier.
Nice saw. I didn't like the top handle however ... as I stated. Though with a mod ... it might be the perfect trail work saw for the summer.
Sold that saw already and am still looking for a great fit for what I want.
Nice lookin saw ... how much does that beasty weigh in at?

You cannot go wrong with a 401. They are REALLY light and well built.
