iggy Posted August 23, 2010 Report Posted August 23, 2010 Hi All,I have decided to get back into detecting. I used to have a Minelab 2100 V2 for my gold detecting and have since moved on and sold it.I will be on the road with my trailer and was interested in finding a detector that will work well in dry beach sand as well as dry land.I don't need a Minelab detector (High End) nor a Bounty Hunter (Low End)I have been looking into a Garrett 250 ($212 - $297) 6.5 kHZ or the NEW Garrett Ace 350 that is coming out in Oct. ($297) I think 8.25 kHZI'm sure others will chime in on their favorites. I'm all ears.
Bunk Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 John, I wish I could help you out. I still have my ML X-70, and really like it on the beach.Bunk

wonderer Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Iggy, Good to see you back, you just going to hunt beaches & relic hunt areas ? One thing make sure the metal detector coil is waterproof incase you hunt around lakes, rivers, beachsurf or get caught out in the rain (you can always put a plastic bag around the control box). You still ATVing around the state to ?wonderer
