Iron problems ace 250 :csflag::rant:
- Thread starter jensman86

Large iron and very rusted smaller iron will often times read as a good target. To help eliminate the guesswork, stamp hard on the target (no, really) which can beak up the rust halo, so the Ace will read it is "iron" which will now not give an audio signal, as it is notched out. Of course if it still reads a good signal, it probably is! 
One way to eliminate the guesswork for a large target, is to keep raising the coil while scanning over the target. If you are still getting a strong target at 15", chances are that it is a large target. Take some time to throw some common targets like coins & junk. Scan them and take notice at what height the audio cuts out. 
Good luck!

I agree with John and BigCatDaddy.....I use the "stomp" technique as some of the areas I hunt (farms) have lots of rusty old junk in the ground but raising the coil is also a good indication on what lies below. You are going to dig some "junk" no matter which detector you have. Just keep at it as the good stuff will come with practice, patience, and experience.
