Hey guys,
Just purchased a brandy new Stihl MS361 with an 18" stock bar and was wondering what would be the best bar to upgrade to. Keep in mind I don't do this full time but tend to run nothing but the best. Sometimes it's overkill but that's just me. I've been looking at the Woodland Pro in my Bailey's catalog but I have very limited knowledge in this field and want the opinion of you pros.

Thanks to all.........
 
The Stihl ES bars that are standard on the MS361 are pretty highly regarded factory bars no need to replace unless you are looking to go to a different length and even then the ES bars are a very good value.
 
Cannon/woodland pro is considerd the absolute best by many. The Stihl ES bars are very high quality prolly second to Cannon. Quality difference between the two would not be worth the money. If your saw came with the Stihl Rollamatic E laminated bar then eithr of the above bars would be an upgrade. Run it with the bar you have and see if thats the length you like.
