Because every professional user I have ever seen is using 10W30 engine
oil. Now I'm not about to put that into my Stihls but I was just
wondering if I am wasting money on expensive bar oil?

Any comments?

On our old (craftsman) saw, the manual specified 30w motor oil... we gave it a
lot of use for about 6 years and only replaced the chain once..

On our new stihl, the dealer gave me 4 quarts of stihl chain saw oil at cost, if
I promised not to use motor oil later.. lol
