I have the 271 and it’s been a great saw. Put it through its paces after Ida and have no complaints. Mine has a 20” bar and enough power to pull it pretty well. But as mentioned above, the 261 is the goat. It’s more expensive, but if I was using mine more than 5-7 times a year, I would spend the extra money on it.
