X-Bull chainsaw compared to Stihl MS362

[jltrent]

I noticed these are about the same size. How would the X-Bull compare to the MS362.

They sure are selling a lot of X-BULLs. One year warranty, free shipping and 4 1/2 Horse.

Cheap to buy, sure, but at what cost to your self-respect?

 

[ammoaddict]

I think that's the cheapest I have seen one. It might very well be a decent saw but not in the same league as a ms362. Even if they honored the warranty, after the warranty was up, I doubt you would be able to find parts if you needed them

X-Bull

 

[67L36Driver]

58cc, .325” x 18”.

It was $109 delivered to my door.

Why? Because I wanted to investigate.

Performs OK. Not a world beater by any stretch.

Cheap enuff to buy one every firewood season.

You get what you pay for.

It's gotta be a good saw....The purge bulb is a "Fuel Tank Viewing Window". LOL

Have a link for that saw? Cheap enough to buy one to lend to the relative or friend that asks to borrow a saw and you don’t have to pizz them off by saying no.

Heck, would take that over any Stihl. Looks better also.

You like walking around with a bullseye on your back?

Identical to the ‘Blue Max’ except for the red/black plastics.

I've got one and no it's not 62cc, right on the cylinder it says 52cc. It runs and cuts good.

I've got the slightly better version with the tank site window thats 58cc. I've got a lot of use out of it, around 30 large pines in the last year. These saws are easy to get parts for, these are based on the redmax/zenoah g5000 and zenoah g5200. You can get parts from redmax parts direct, ebay, amazon, and aliexpress.

Knowing you can get parts is a big plus. The guy borrowing the saw will be pumped up borrowing such a “purdy”saw. Might have to order one if I don’t blow all my money at the Paul Bunyan Festival this weekend.

Wonder how it would do with a bg delete, mm, and the ports widened. Cheap enough to experiment on and not feel bad if I kill it.

 

[TBS]

Dual port mufflers for these cost about 10 dollars.

 

[67L36Driver]

The one thing it lacks is a fast idle latch. A loose zip tie around the trigger works for me.

Oh, and no purge bulb.

Do you run 25:1? Just a question, not trying to start anything, like I may have done in the past. Thanks for the link.

 

[alabama xl]

is the engine on these a clamshell? normal cylinder?

 

[alabama xl]

also curious about the chain brake. I've never tripped on by accident, but wondering if these guys have an inertia brake on their saws?

 

[TBS]

Its an aluminum case engine. I run mine 50:1 and yes they have an inertia brake.
