Tejon depth on buttons and bullets?

Realistically, what kind of depth have other people gotten on the Tejon, in all metal, moderate ground and hunting for bullets or buttons?
 
I don't hunt bullets but I find them farly offtion in the park it hunt between 5 and 7". It seems that the park has several old home sites on it and I would assume they was a little shooting going on in the area before it became a park. The bullets I find are for the most part 22cal and a few are a little larger like 25cal. but I never really checked them being I don't think thay have anything to do with a civil war battle, just old farm land and somebody shooting at a target of some kind. I would hate to think how deep it would hit on a .69cal bullet.

The Tejon likes bullets meaning it hits on them hard and it is hard not to dig them when I get a good siginal.

Unfortunately, there are hot and cold Tesoro's. Mine would not hit an 8" .58 cal in the ground with stock coil, but did hit it with the 10x12.

I got a click one way on a 10" .58 cal in the ground with the 10x12.

My Vaquero on the other hand will hit the 10" .58 cal with the stock coil.
 
I don't have a tejon, but i have a Vaquero. The last button that i found that impressed me was a Blazer button about 9", deep and it was about the size of a nickel, about a 1/4 inch thick. The tesoro depth is pretty dad-burned good, but you have to dig everything. Which is okay.
