Husqvarna original bars
The Husqvarna 450 Rancher takes all Husqvarna guide bars with the Small mount, .325″ pitch and .050″ gauge; .058″ gauge bars also fit though not specified for the saw. The compatible original bars are listed in the two tables below. Recommended bar lengths are 13″ to 20″, compatible bars outside this range greyed out.
There are quite a few models, but in practice the narrow-kerf HLN-250 or X-Force bars with a SP33G Pixel chain are the best match for the 3.2 hp power of the 450 Rancher.

Oregon bars
Oregon makes a large number of Husqvarna 450 Rancher -compatible guide bars in the K095 mount, .325″ pitch and both in .050″ and .058″ gauges. These bars are listed in the two tables below. The narrow-kerf SpeedCut™ and AdvanceCut™ (MLB) bars (.050″) are probably the best choice for the power level of the 450 Rancher.
