I just bought a replacement bar for my Stihl MS311. I had two bars to start off with which I have been rotating, so this is the first "new" bar into the mix for 5+ years. My chains now fit so tightly I'd be afraid to try to run the saw if I forced it into the bar. I've double checked that the bar is correct to spec, it's OEM, and it's .050 gauge anyway, so it's not like the bar was mis-packaged & it's too small. Has this ever happened to any of you? My old bars are spayed out.
