[size=x-large]In testing for an upcoming hunt on an old farm, I was again amazed at the power of the musketeers all metal mode& depth. Even in the worst ground. Using the small TS800 in all metal I could clearly hit a dime under 3" of mineralized black sand gravel , all of which will cling vigorously to magnet .. And i,m shure it would go deeper .Now in disq mode its just like any detector MASKING I also have a hot rock which you see sticking to a magnet i saved it because i use it for testing i placed a penny at 8" and set the hot rock over it , wile not picking up the hot rock it made a nice sound on the penny below and this is using the small coil IMPRESSIVE . this is what i will use on the old farm as it is a bit trashy . so if you have black sand or Georgia red clays you may think about using a musketeer or GT[/size]
