I have the Milwaukee m8 hatchet chain saw It works great. You do not need bar oil when cutting bone as there is enough natural lube. You could also use vegetable oil if you wanted.

I have a Milwaukee Hackzall ( mini sawzall ) and 4ah and 2ah batteries. My brother and i broke down a moose 2 seasons ago with it including cutting the antlers off later on just the 4ah. It was pretty much done by the end but it made it thruOriginally Posted by Arctic Lake

Sawzall gets my vote aswell. Chain saw will make bone chips vs the sawzall makes a bone paste/dust. and decently easy to clean a sawzall, any type of circular saw is asking for injury if something like hide gets caught in and wrapped up.

DEWALT 20V MAX Lithium-Ion Cordless Reciprocating Saw, a couple of 5Ah Batteries and an aggressive 12" blade. Bonus, can help out to clear out smaller trees that block your road.

PA has a "Meat Blade" for 10bux.
Chainsaw is only good for a horror show.

We always used a dedicated clean saw, no oil... worked just fine. Cleaned it well after the years hunt and good to go next year. Never had success with a reciprocating saw. We gave it a go one year and went back to the chain. The jays loved cleaning up the saw dust the tarp didn't catch...

The biggest downfall of using a chainsaw is the time spent cleaning it out after using it, you spend more time cleaning than you did cutting. A battery powered sawsall is the ticket to avoid the clean up

About 20 minutes to clean out saw... at home after the hunt.
Can you get a 16 inch Saws All blade?

I bought some stainless blades for my m12 hacksall. Better blades should help I'm thinking. We'll give er a rip.
