Have one being delivered tomorrow because of the extra features over the T2/F75. What settings are you running? Im leaning towars All Metal with the iron volume turned fairly low. Im just worried about missing chunks of shells and other big iron relics. But typically they bounce between negative and positive on the machines above so maybe it would give a broken high tone? Dunno.

Cal's right.
All Metal is single tone, but does have ID #.
You could try 2 tone. No ID filter, no notch filter, but set Iron Audio to 2 or 3.
Set low tone to 100Hz and high tone to 700Hz.
That way you get no discrimination, and you still hear the iron. It's just quieter and lower than the non-ferrous tone.

I like to run in three tone with ID Filter at 3, tone breaks at 10 and 65 with the tones set at 10hz, 40hz, & 70hz and the iron volume at 1. The ID filter at 3 knocks out most of the small iron and nails and the iron volume set at 1 quiets most all the small iron that does manage to come through. The larger iron relics like locks, horseshoes, and toys will register in the higher 70hz so those items will still come through with a good digable sound.

I run mine on 3 tone (much less noisy in areas you may bump the head on brush) 2 tone when in open fields. I usually set the ID filter at 20 if the area has a lot of iron and 10 if it does not. Tone breaks at 22 as nothing I have dug below that is ever anything great. Bullets will be in the 65 ID range, brass will run usually 50-60s range unless large then it will be in the 70-80 range. I would dig most any target over 34 as that is where nickle and pewter will start coming in ..... solid constant numbers are usually the better targets if the ID # is bouncing around in over a 10 point spread it is usually trash. Just my findings so far. My tongue and wreath rang a solid 84 but unfortunately that is also where aluminum cans come in also. the sound is as much the key as the number ....broken tones are usually trash but I still dig 80% of targets that have a fairly steady ID # and a good solid repeatable tone.

Nothing wrong with frags ..... you are not going to eliminate big iron if you are hunting for CW items. Most big iron will have some tone change in the sound....usually as your swinging past it you get a bit of a grunt instead of a solid even tone on items like bullets and buttons or brass. Once you learn the machine more you will be able to tell larger readings from smaller ones and you will start hearing the sound a bit more to help you decide if it may be big iron or brass.
