I have a question: What machine on the market today would you consider the best and deepest if you are looking solely for iron and ferrous metals? (n/t)

Down in the Dumps18905/20/2013 02:05PM

Why spend so much money of you are soley looking for iron??

Earl K. in Va.5505/22/2013 09:47AM

Thanks Earl. I am not convinced that my F75 will reach the depths I am looking for. I know my MXT won't. I understand the GPX is capable of finding a shell at 24 inches or more. That is the power I am looking for. (n/t)

Down in the Dumps805/22/2013 02:04PM

My two cents in defense of the mxt...

dawgmanvt4405/22/2013 11:25PM

My mxt is one of the first ones manufactured, and I have hundreds – if not thousands of hours on it, but it has never performed to the degree you spell out.

Down in the Dumps2505/23/2013 06:40AM

My MXT is an early ESeries also.....

dawgmanvt1805/23/2013 07:52AM

Down in the Dumps1605/22/2013 07:08AM

The 4800 GPX is the best bet if you can afford one. A 4500 used. (n/t)

Dennis Andrick1705/21/2013 08:18PM

I am looking at a used 4800 at the moment. Found one with two coils for $ 3000.00. Of course a new one isn't but $800.00 more with full warranty. Too many decisions. (n/t)

Down in the Dumps1505/21/2013 08:59PM

Interesting question
