Stihl or Husqvarna. Which ever is serviced locally. More expensive than Poulan, Echo, Josered, etc. There's a reason for that. Your dealer has whatever size you decide you need.

Between the 2 doesn't matter. Some like like Husky, fast chain speed. Some like Stihl, pulls like a tractor. You can tell which is which in the woods. Husky's scream, Sthil's grunt. Eventually ended up with one of each.

If you're not sure call up few local loggers and ask them what they use.
