Oregon 3/8" Pitch (.050 Gauge) 45 Link Chainsaw Chain

Q: I have a Stihl 290 Farm Boss with 20 inch bar is this the chain I want 91PX045G, thanks for your help?

A: No, this is not going to be the chain for you with your saw. This particular chain is only going to be 45 links. With the bar on the saw you have you are going to be more along the lines of 72-81 links from what I can tell. The one factor I would need to know is what is your gauge and pitch of the saw, this can vary from area to area and saw to saw and it would let us know the needed links as well. So it is something we would need to determine before figuring out the chain you would need. This would make a difference in your needing a 20BPX or a 72V.
