Field Test - Minelab Manticore side by side with the XP Deus 2
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ส.ค. 2024
- Today I’m out in the field with Jimmy D’Amato (Jimzilla online) and he is using his Manticore. I have known Jimmy for years and he is one of the best hunters I know. We picked an old park that people have left for dead. We picked an area of the park that is loaded with trash to see how these machines would perform. Spoiler alert, while comparing signals, we could clearly hear all of each other’s good deep targets. When it came to deep iron, there were a few challenges… also, first time for Jimmy using the UniProbe.
Great video showing actual digs and targets to make all of us drool. good performance from the two best detectors out there even though the Manticore has a problem with some deep iron . Would have been helpful if the speakers were on so we could hear the target sounds. D2 owner here and it's hard to beat!
This is among the best detecting videos I have seen. Well done!
Now this is the type of video I like to see! Real world hunting!! You two were awesome in narration. Would of been nice to hear the tones though. But from what I read in one of your responses you will incorporate this next time. Otherwise you guys made a near perfect video. No hype, No BS, no loud yelling, and no ego. Keep up the super video productions 👍
40 years ago no detectors would separate the signals like they do now! I could get 8 to 10 inches with my XLT but, the separation is what finds the coins out of the trashy areas. When I got my Minelab Sovereign, I hit all the places I had pounded with the XLT and I found more nickels and rings. I plan getting a Manticore soon!
You are 100% correct. These machines nowadays process so fast that we go back to areas considered worked out and find stuff hidden amongst the trash
Very good video. I enjoyed it greatly.. 2 nice units for sure.
I love these types of videos showing comparison of live digs. Wish I could hear the tones though
In this video we describe if they're allowed or soft but in the next video we're going to flip one of the ear cups so the camera could pick up the sounds
@@DetectorComparisons looking forward to watching it. Happy Hunting Brother
Thanks for the heads up and will look forward to your next offering. Jerry. UK.
i like it MrCarter...........we are waiting for the beast here........stay warm
Good to hear from you! I'll bet the Manticore will be exceptional in the wet saltwater sand. If it wasn't 4 degrees out this morning, that's a test we would be doing. Warming up by the end of next week though...
Pounded site, lots of old coins, both machines look to be working well, Gotta Love It!
Thanks guys, great video, It really looks like a pretty close battle between the 2 powerhouse machines, I'm a beach hunter primarily, And had to learn fast with the xp 2 Here on FLs, treasure coast, The past 3 months, With the big storms, One of the problems I'm Working on, With the xp 2, Is digging good numbers like 86, 88, Then digging to China, Only to find the numbers change to single digits 3, 7, as I get close to the target, But I know it's because I run my machines hot, hi sens, low disc, and reactivity, But learning to bounce around from programs, To learn more about the target, Before I dig it, Either way still Learning, but Pretty happy with the xp 2, Thanks again guys, And merry Christmas.☃️🌲🇺🇲🙏
,
I like the comments I read for this post...respectfull, no bragging, no misleading, both machine are good tools, the success is the result of the user experience...they carpool, and nice plugs..and they have fun.
I believe just like any detector it takes time and hours to be more confident and have expertise to be good with your detector. I believe the Manticore is still new in the hands of detectorist and there is a learning curve that needs to be overcome. It's either that or minelab released an inferior machine which I highly doubt. It's the users for now... And maybe an iron update. Great video!
Definitely takes time to learn a new machine but between Jimmy and myself we have thousands of hours on our Equinoxes and for sure the Manticore is a step up. Deep iron has always been an issue with the Equinox and many good Hunters out there that have upgraded to the Manticore hoping there will be a noticeable Improvement regarding being fooled by Deep iron. Jimmy has talked to many people and has tried many different settings on his machine, keeping the sensitivity down around 20 seems to help but hopefully we can figure out what else we can do to stop the falsing. In the near future we're going to go to areas that have more iron in the park we were just in and we'll keep trying different settings to get better results.
THIS is the kind of channel I'm looking for. Subscribed.
Absolutely PERFECT example of how park hunting is done by two obvious pros! Fantastic job to both of you! Here comes the SUB!🤠
Guys in parks with shovels are not pros.
@@rodmyers5691 That’s all opinion, discretion must be used according to location.
Very Encouraging to see these newer machines finding silver that were missed by passed generation machines. Goes to show it's not all hype and bells & whistles.
Exactly, some of the older places come alive again
Really excellent video comparing two great detectors in real world conditions. I love that you compared the signals and then dug the targets to confirm your findings. The D2 did edge out the Manicore on iron. I saw another video that said if there is a slight delay on the Manicore before you get the "good" reading it probably is iron. If there is no delay then it probably is good. Congrats on all the silver!
Interesting observation about the delay being iron with the Manticore. We are going out again next week to a different spot that actually has a little more iron and we will be also comparing the signals side by side. This time we're going to flip one of the ear cups on our headset so hopefully the camera picks up the sound of the signals as well. Thanks again for your input
Jimmy and Carter awesome collaboration. I have a feeling that the deep iron signal is just like the old wrap around signal we had on the late explorer 2. We had to notch out the upper extreme corner of silver to get past the iron. The silver still registered but it was right on the edge. I wonder
Interesting video buddy. I see Jimmy on the Manticore groups. I don’t own one of those yet. Looking at this video it doesn’t make me feel I’m doing the wrong thing by using my Deus 1 with HF coil instead of either of these. My Deus 2 isn’t as good in highly mineralised ground looking for tiny ancient coins. Hopefully XP will bring out the update and fix that. Also regarding the manticore picking up iron I think a lot of that is people just haven’t had that many hours on it yet. Although one thing I don’t like that I’m hearing is most users up to now are not running it anywhere near the top end with sensitivity due to too much chatter and it’s preference for iron. If I pay top dollar for a machine I want to have the option to run the sensitivity to the max with very little discrimination. Thanks for the video and good luck.
Great video, love the side by side comparison.. great job!!
Thanks for the video...Silver all over the place👍
This is a great video. Exactly how it should be done. Really interesting to see and that display on the minelab looks cool. New sub from the UK
Wow, impressive new technology on that Gray Ghost uniprobe headphone, thank you for the info .
That was a fun and informative video - Thank you both!
Enjoyed that hunt! Thanks for sharing.
Jimmy yonkers in his element lol. cant wait for my manticore will def have to bring it to our favorite park.
That was exciting, congratulations to you both
Hello, really good video! Thank you!
Jean Ponce recommend this video.
I hope Minelab gets that iron falsing figured out soon.
I'm buying a Deus 2 or a Manticore. I'm just waiting to see how this plays out. My 800 works just fine so I'm in no hurry.
We will definitely be doing more videos side by side in the near future. I also hope there are some updates from Minelab
I think you have to go into the negative numerber -7 or -8
I think the manticore would perform better with a 6×8 coil or 6 inch coil maybe 6 x 10.
That's the secret working in tandem their making a killing.
I was in your shoes and after the update I got the Manticore.
another great thing about the d2 is, targets are always directly below the bottom coil tip. sniper tool it is.
Great video I have the 900 and Deus 2 have to spend more time on. My D2
I would definitely be using the wireless headphones with the Manticore they sound great I hear and no cord!!!
Great video in the field, comparing the signals. I have a equinox 800 and a xp deus 2, had the dues 2 for almost one year now. It really does a great job in iron. The Manticore seem to be doing what I experienced with the 800. I hope they can address it. I am running a beach sen modified program if you wanted to try it out. I have had a lot of luck with it finding coins. My email is on my channel about page. Again great video I am glad you did it.
Excellent video !
Great hunt with the two detectors.
Good comparison between the 2 units. What pinpointers are you guys using??
The pinpointers are the Uniprobe. It's a pulse induction probe built into a set of headphones. You can read about them at Detectorpro.com
Thanks very much for a great video. 👍
Great hunt guys! Congrats on the silvers.
Enjoyed the video, Carter. George Kinsey.
Glad you like it George, we are going to try to get out the end of next week when the temps warm up again
@@DetectorComparisons Will do. Merry Christmas from Central Virginia.
Thanks for the video. Great hunt.
You might want to use an old rag to put all your loose dirt on, then just funnel it back into the hole and you will leave the area cleaner.
Nice comparison, Loved my Nox 800 but did false on Some good deep targets and love my D2
Deus 1 here in the UK is terrible for falsing on large iron. Drawing the coil back whilst swinging can sometimes change it to an iron tone. Now a mate has just bought a Deus 2 from using a Garrett, and now digging loads of iron! So it seems to be the opposite way round here.
You're kidding! It's so easy to tell deep iron on the Deus 1 in the UK! Anything over 95 is highly likely especially when you turn the volume up and catch the buzzy edge. Keep practicing.
@@agetyrrell Nope, lol it's poor on iron falsing. I've had it about 8 years. And have got used to it to eliminate most of it. But when I go over the same signal with my f75, and a mate checks with an at pro, and says it's iron. And the Deus tells me it's a good signal, and it's iron. That confirms to me that it's poor on iron id. Still love the machine though. And will get the d2 at some point.
Is it only when hunting in all metal the detector shows a deep high conductive target and iron is found . Or is it doing that with discrimination modes aswell. I sold my 800, my friend has the 900 and I liked it right away. I need a very good detector as a back up for my ctx . Thanks for sharing. Pete
Unfortunately it does it in all metal and discriminate
@@DetectorComparisons Oh No! That is not good . I see myself digging deep iron often believing I'm on the silver. Has minlab addressed the issue . Thanks Pete
@@petedetects7012 Minelab is definitely aware of the deep iron issues. It seems hunting in the lower single frequency helps but Minelab needs to get one of their preset programs working so it doesn't get fooled by the deep iron. On Sunday we are going to do another side-by-side outing with the Manticore and D2
How a video should be done! YOU JUST GOT MY SUB! If you guys had to pick only one of those 2 machines which one would you buy first?
We have a lot more side-by-side to do but as of right now the machines are very comprable in terms of performance. The only downside is the Manticore likes the Deep iron. In general one machine will hear the others good deep signals so it's really hard to make a call right now. A lot is personal preference.
I’ve always been a big fan of your videos. Especially those with your pulse TDI Pro at the beach. Any chance of you doing a video with the Garrett Axiom at the beach? Wondering if it is compatible or even better/ deeper than the TDI. Thanks for your videos!
Definitely a video I would like to try in the future. Thank you for the suggestion
What pin pointer is that your using? Thanks good job comparing the two
The sensitivity even on the 900 in park 1 mode falses with high sensitivity turning it down makes all the difference
The pin pointer is called a Uni probe from Detector Pro. Much faster and deeper than my old handheld probe. You could read more about it at detectorpro.com
Well done Boys!
Great video.
For a place that has been worked hard you’ll got a lot of stuff out of there
Thanks, very interesting.
Compare the legend with the equinox 800
My question is… were there any signals that one person got, but the other did not? Or like the Deus got a deep target and the Minelab didn’t? Or if it did but you would not have dug it because it didn’t sound good?
I’m noticing the Manticore target ID seems very stable
Yes the numbers are very accurate and only seem to bounce around when the target's extremely deep
Question on this because watching the video I got the exact opposite reaction. For example, watch at 24:35, he's swinging over the target a number of times and every time he's getting a different number. I noticed this pretty much every time they were showing the Manticore numbers in the video. Am I missing something?
@@BrotherMJ808 remember when targets are very close to other targets, a lot of times it will be hard to get the ID number to lock on especially when the good Target is deep. We will repeatedly go over a Target to get the average ID number. Bottom line is if it repeats and it's deep don't worry about the ID number, you want to dig it out anyway.
Interesting video, but it would be much more interesting if you were unplugging your headset so we also could hear the sound of the machine. Right now it is very boring to watch as we don't have any feedback sound from the detectors.
A fair compassion for a change I've got a deus 2 and love it but they both look similar on performance .
great video- love the comparisons! Would you reccomend the 9 or 11 inch for the D2? if you could only choose one
👍positive vibration's
this is a great hunt, would love to see your settings, I've got a D2 but still learning and that seems like a good setup for a trashy sight
The stock programs on the D2 are really good. In the videos I talk about what program I'm in and I really just tweak up the sensitivity and sometimes recovery speed. In general having a recovery speed of two works great.
@@DetectorComparisons awesome, I'll give that a try. I've just been going stock general or deep HC, so I'll try general with a lower recovery speed. Thanks for your channel, just subbed! :)
OPPSSS GREAT VIDEO
Nice, but we all want to hear the tones... Some of us can tell by only the tones if it's iron or trash.
Love this video guys…. What settings were you using on the D2. Sorry if you mentioned in the video.
No problem, I was running General but had it tweaked a little. Sensitivity at 95, reactivity at 2, disc at 6.8. I like. all the iron so I keep the iron volume level low
Nice video and contemplating on whether to buy the manticore I have the D2 which I really like I do the beach hunting mostly so I'm up in the air should I save my money and stick with the D2 or spend the money on the manticore so question is it that both machines are equal try to save my money and just keep the D2 I have the manticore preordered now I'm thinking I should just cancel that so your opinion would be appreciated
If you mainly do Beach hunting, I haven't even tried the Manticore in the wet saltwater sand hopefully later this week it warms up we will try it out at the beach
Seems like you couldn’t go far wrong with either detector
Great video. Now I’m confident in purchasing either one of those machines. And what is that probe you’re using? I think I only
Both of the machines do amazing in heavy trash. The probe we are using is the Detectorpro Uniprobe. You can read about it at detectorpro.com
@@DetectorComparisons thank you so much
bonjour ou trouver vos pelles merci de repondre et bonne annee
what program are you using on the D2 and what ajustmants
Very interesting video .Perhaps I should keep my XP Deus and leave the Manticore money in the bank.???
We're definitely going to be doing more testing and tweaking. Should warm up at the end of this coming week so we'll get out there again. 4 degrees this morning.
My old Fisher cz6 8 inch coil finds silver dimes at 10 inch.
I believe it, I used to use the Fishers back in the day and I remember my 1266 would go that deep for a silver dime but it also liked deep bent nails. The machines nowadays seem to handle the Trashy areas better but in terms of raw depth those Fishers were good machines
@@DetectorComparisons I also had the 1265x also deep. When you guys said the new detectors could find 7 inch targets. That's why I responded. Great video thank-you
Its amazing how the D2 #s here are just like my diving mode #s. Manticore is nice, but people really need to understand how good the D2 is. Very deep and accurate. 👍
@@chuckp3131 my father has one Fisher 1265X as well. It is a very good machine, mainly for Silver, exactly. The Tessin could be conductivity of silver and 4khz of fisher.
Do you think Deus II or Manticore could be better than fisher 1265X?
The problem with not digging the iron piece is that it could be masking good signals near it. I pull iron out all the time (pipes, iron bars, etc) and sure I'm going to dig a few more holes but I can tell you I'm pulling a lot more relics than anyone else that are hiding because of the big iron masking it. I think it's a trade off. I am using the relic mode on a Deus 2. I can tell you if there is a coin or piece of metal there that machine will find it. Went to a local school the other day and the coins were standing out of the trash by miles. I also notch out 1-50 so I'm digging that tiny pieces of crap.
Can I ask what your using for settings on D2 thanks
Presets are really good on the D2. Mainly I hunt in general and I push the sensitivity to 95 if I can, I like the recovery speed at 2.0.
Can you tell me about the pin pointer "probe" you are using?
It is called the uniprobe and it's a set of headphones with a built-in pulse induction probe. You can read about it at detectorpro.com
Hello from Germany. What is that wired black slim pinpointer?

It would be nice to hear the target tones, without it is nearly useless for me...
We talk about the signals being loud or soft but in our next video we're actually going to flip the ear cup so hopefully the camera picks up the sounds. We've had a couple requests for this
Very interesting. Is the Deus waterproof?
Yes, the Deus 2 is waterproof
hi ,what is a shovel ? 2:20
Were you using 9" or 11" coil on the deus 2?
11
On the 4 occasions that the Manticore falsed on iron, did he check it with all metal mode turned off, and it still didn't read as iron(red line under the number)?
Those were clear signals without the red line. When you turn all metal off the target is just as clear but you don’t hear the iron grunt BUT sometimes on deep coins you also hear the iron grunt. I don’t think all iron can be avoided with the Manticore. Some of those targets that I dug came up as 95 on the VDI. That could be considered an iron target right from the beginning since that’s a high VDI reading but silver sometimes reads that high as well especially if it’s deep. I noticed with the manticore really deep targets can read much higher than their normal numbers or much lower. Only on really deep targets not targets less than 8”
Jimmy was going back and forth between searching in disc and all metal. The Deep iron targets that fooled the Manticore were checked by him in both all metal and disc. Jimmy had quite a few hours on the Manticore before we hunted together and he said turning down the discriminate to 20 definitely helped in terms of digging less deep iron.
@@jimzilladetecting
Back in the day when the Whites DFX was one of the best out there for who ever had the patience to learn it. I remember that iron would wrap around and false but at least it gave a +95 VDI which pretty much would normally be like a silver dollar or a jar cache of silver if it wasn't iron wrap around and maybe the aluminum can of course. So I often disc'd the +95 out and also down around -25 and lower so I would accept light iron because I got much better depth doing so. And then either way I almost always ran in Mixed Mode to hear the iron which told me there's iron regardless of what I wanted to accept or reject and relied on its VDI
With the Manticore did that iron falsing also give you high VDI number?. If I'm not mistaken I thought on one of the digs you thought it might be a silver quarter so i'm assuming that was a pretty high VDI. If so even if you have to deal with some falsing can't you start keeping an eye out for those very high VDI numbers especially if you pinpoint a little off to the side? I know most likely it's wise to still just dig those damn/darn "iffy" signals because you never know what's really down there.
One other thing and I'll use the DFX as comparison again was that it had a signagraph scale that would show ferrous and non ferrous targets light up regardless to the targets ID so if I got a VDI of +95 there might be 1 bar up at that +95 range on the signagraph but it would also show heavy blocking down low at the -95 area on the signagraph which pretty much told me it's most likely iron wrapping around. That detector was amazing for it's time with it's abilities to have control over so many functions that it made a lot of great finds for me and I could call the target or it's alloy so accurately that friends watching were thinking I was cheating somehow lol??? But it just too outdated and it doesn't have the digital computing power and processing speed of these detectors of today to keep up although I did dig some deep coins. They were also clean New Jersey farm dirt. Mineralized ground wasnt quite so easy.
But this was a great comparison because these two detectors and the Legend are the 3 I'm down to and I was leaning towards the Deus before I saw this and I haven't seen any great video like this with the Legend to sway me. I bought the AT Maxx 2 months ago and I think I should've waited a little longer.
@@jeanponce2017 I used to have the V3i and that reacted the same way to iron as the DFX. The problem with the Manticore is that iron can come in at any number 60-99. Sometimes deep silver comes in at 97-98. On deep targets the VDI numbers can really jump up in mineralized ground. I’ve dug wheats that read in the 85-92 range with the manticore
where can i find the settings you both use ?
There are three other field test videos and we talk about the settings that we use in the other videos. We are constantly changing and trying different settings
@@DetectorComparisons I thank you for your reply but being old i get confused . Thanks again !!
What kind of pinpointed on the Manticore? It looks interesting
It is called the Uniprobe by Detector Pro. It is a pro built into the set of headphones. You can read about it at detectorpro.com
Can I ask what probe your using please?
It is called the uniprobe by Detector Pro. It is a pulse induction probe built into the headphones so you hear only the metal detector or only the probe. You could read more about it at detectorpro.com
What was your Deus mono program?
I took the D2 Mono program and customized it to 4 khz, sensitivity 95, reactivity 2 and with audio response at 4
Все ваше видео-средний градус по больнице. Я видел как работают Эквиноксы, сомневаюсь, что Мантикора хуже. На своем Интронике я наоборот могу оцветнить глубокую сомнительную цель просто сдвинув фильтр TI. Нечто подобное есть и у Эквинокса Iron Bias
What state is this that has that dirt?
New York.
Why Jimmy doesn’t use the Manticore cordless headphone? Merry Christmas to you both.
He's using the Gray Ghost Uniprobe which is a headset with a pulse probe built into it.
Wanted to test it out with his Manticore
@@DetectorComparisons So is the headset he is using is the DetectorPro UniProbe? Or is it a Gray Ghost? Is the version the same as the one that is being sold for the Nox?
@@paulfischer6212 DetectorPro makes the Gray Ghost line of headphones including the Uniprobes. They are made to work with all detectors you just need to specify which machine you have when buying Uniprobe headphones
@@DetectorComparisons Yes, I was simply asking if the Equinox version of the Uniprobe headphones would work with the Manticore. Presently the list of machines available only list CTX and Equinox MineLab machines, not the Manticore.
Does the wand comes with the machine?
The pinpointing probes we were using in the video are called UniProbes. There are actually headphones with a probe built into them where you flip a switch on the headphones to go between hearing your metal detector and the probe. They don't come with the detectors.
Very good video, it looks like a good idea to have both detectors hunting together. I would like to see someone figure the iron falling out. It might take an update.
Well we don't show in the video is the fact that many many different settings were tweaked before we did this hunt. Jimmy found that keeping the sensitivity down around 20 helps with the iron falsing for deep targets. Hopefully more can be figured out because even at this park where there was very little iron, we were fooled a few times on the Deep stuff
@@DetectorComparisons It is going to take a bit to figure this machine out. If more people had them it would help.
Minelab has been made aware and is working on the iron falsing. Will see if they get an update out addressing it. Great thing that modern machines have update capability!!
@@jkiser77 It is amazing how they can fix things and then you just download the fix. I have never had any problems doing an update on a minelab machine either.
@@jkiser77 it is amazing and I really do hope they figure it out.
If you don't mind what are your D2 settings, I understand if you don't want to share, Thanks
No problem at all. I mentioned in the video I use the general mode but I tweak it slightly. I keep the sensitivity at 95 with reactivity at 2. I just do manual ground balance and keep my discrimination at 6.8. I like to hear the iron but I have the iron volume set low
@@DetectorComparisons Thank You, Happy Holidays 🎄
@@DetectorComparisons Awesome, thanks. Where do you run your audio response and iron volume? I only ask because I'm a cellar hole guy from Western Massachusetts and I have AR and sensitivity dialed way down in the iron. I'm gonna try some field/parks in the Spring and your program works really nice.
@@jaystrongbow6111 love hunting the seller holes, I keep my iron volume around two where I barely hear a little grunt just letting me know how much iron is around. I keep the audio response at 4 which gives me a softer smooth signal for the real deep targets. Of course around seller holes I dig everything but in the Parks where I only want deep targets, the audio response feature really helps.

What part of the country?
Upstate New York
What were u guys running your sensitivity at
We talked about it in the video, Jimmy was running his Manticore at 21 and he explains why, it apparently helps with iron falling. I was running the Deus to at 95 . Thanks
@@DetectorComparisons I know he did. I asked the question when he hit the first target. I should have waited till the end of video
U guys did a great job with video. Seems like the deus did better though.
Can’t wait to you guys do more on these comparisons. Could you guy either let us here between the targets or tell us how faint or loud the targets next time
Merry Christmas
@tom tripptree I actually found more silver lol. 4 mercs and a standing liberty quarter but both machines picked up the targets. The D2 did better on the deep iron.
@@tomtripptree5079 next time we'll each flip one of our ear cups so the camera can pick up the sounds. During this video we tried to talk about how loud or soft the signals were but I agree it would be better if everyone could hear them
@@jimzilladetecting so we had a total of eight silver? I must have missed one of yours LOL. End of next week is looking good
What pinpointer is that
It is called the Uni probe made by Detectorpro. The pulse induction Pro built into a set of headphones. You can read about them at Detectorpro.com
Its funny how the manticore is falsing some but nobody is commenting how great the D2 is doing with ease. LMAO
The machines were very comparable in that we heard each other's deep good targets without an issue but in 3 and 1/2 hours of hunting, there were four times the Manticore was fooled by Deep iron. Hopefully a software update will help correct this issue. We will be doing a lot more side by side testing.
@@DetectorComparisons
I was watching videos of tests on these machines from some guys down south and there was talk about the Deus 2 being off on it's VDI and I sensed these guys are brand loyal to Minelab. But I noticed you didn't seem to have a problem with calling those targets correctly (certainly within range) I have many times hit copper wheats that read as a dime especially when the soil isn't dry so to me that's not a bad ID of a target at all? Personally I thought they ran the detectors too hot for the heavy iron that was in the ground. IMO hotter isn't always the best way to go but what do I know? They were almost like "there was a problem here, well then give it more power"??? SMH lol
@@DetectorComparisons would love seeing some Legend compared to Manticore side by side
@@jeanponce2017 you are correct with your observation that adding more power by cranking up the sensitivity can actually cause more problems in certain situations. Jimmy tested out his Manticore extensively and realized you only need to go to about 20 on the sensitivity to get excellent depth and less falsing. The D2 and the Manticore did very well at IDing deep targets but depending on the ground conditions and what may be nearby the target, at about 7 to 8 inches the ID number would jump around a little but usually stay within a few points. We're going to try to get out next week after this deep freeze and do some more side by side hunting
@@Stefan-wd9uv good suggestion and definitely a test I would like to do in the near future.

great stuff//could watch you 2 knuckleheads compare and contrast signals all day!!
lol
the D2 is a killer and this confirms it//the manticore seems decent but is no way better than the D2 so i will sit tight where i am //just finished this year with over 300 silver coins(best year ever!!) and the majority of those came from spots just like in this video where is was scalped repeatedly for the last 40 plus years and now i can listen and get all the good shit left over!!!
