MS 260 Sweet Spot?

[stubcut]

What bar and chain combo are people running on their 260's? I got a real deal on one about a year or so back and have been running a 20" .325 63 on it. It runs it well till you put in in some bigger stuff. I just rebuilt another saw with the same bar on it, but it's warped. I'm thinking I'm gonna put the 20" on it and get another bar for the 260. I'm thinking about an 18".

I tried a 18" with 3/8's and that sucks.
.325 and 18" is nice.
I have a feeling the picco bar n chain on 18 or 20"(if available) will be good a fit and cook thru the wood.

I've got three:
20" 3/8 chisel............OK
20" .325 chisel........OK
16" 3/8 square ground.........Best.

All three muffler modded.

How did you do the muffler mod?

Opened them up with a dremel tool until they were 80% of the exhaust port size.
