I'm guessing that the 325 is a 5/16? Not sure what the 050 is? I would like to have something that would cut faster... I have about 8-10 chains for the saw now.

5/16 is 3/8LP or picco stuff and there is 5/16 cutters on some other makes of 325 in the past. 325 is 3/16. 3/8 is 7/16 or sometimes with stihl chain 13/64.

RSC chisel chain would be faster cutting but will dull quicker then RMC semi chisel chain

So what is an all round good chain? I don't resharpen mine I usually take them to a shop and have them resharpened...

Your 361 with 20 I would be using stihl RSC , if cutting real dirty wood with mud all over it from being dragged stihl RMC.

If using oregon LGX now days.

Well I got the saw back the other day................... And................ Two pulls and if fired right up and ran like it hasn't ran in a long time!!!!!!! It was really good to feel the power of my bigger saw again...... They charged me a total of $78.00 for the labor and coil, everything else he checked I was not charged for! This has been a long time coming and now I just have to wait until I'm done archery hunting to destroy some of my tree tops laying in the woods! Everyone I talked to said that it was weird for the coil to go bad like that (as in timing) but I guess we all learned something new! Now I just wander if this was a long time in the works because the saw hasn't started that easy in a long time!!!!

Good to hear you got it running!

Yeah, weird that it was the coil, but you exhausted all other options.

Hmmm, now I'm wondering if the coil in my Stihl might be going bad.
