I'll check it out. I run a straight shaft (SRM-280) so that may have something to do with me not really noticing much difference.
Can you comment on how good the ugly line is on chain link.
I generally don't take fenced areas at work. I only have about a total of 8' of chain link fence. I can't really offer an opinion.


I use Oregon round regular green gatorline on chain link with pretty good results. I hear the Magnum is even stronger. I would guess I have about 250 yards of fence line.

I do believe chainlink depends on your skill more than anything. If you dig in, anything will break. You want the line to just slightly graze it.

Yep. If you're digging to bare earth just get some Round Up. And enjoy your crabgrass. Barely graze the links of the fence and digging into it only if there's a difficult blade or two. Best scenario is trying to whack under the links but most are touching the ground.
