My Husqvarna 353 will out cut a MS291 and its also a mid grade saw. The rated HP is slightly lower, but it weighs 2 pounds less. Regardless of the rated power it out cuts the 3 MS291s that family members have.
Every time I have cut side by side with a Husky I have outcut them. I don't think it proves anything because I used to cut professionally. Husky and Stihl are both good brands. Both have weak and strong spots in their lineup.
