I took my Ace250 on it's first hunt today and BOY, was I impressed with it's pinpoint mode! I have never used a detector with such a deadly pinpoint on it (sliding the coil forward). It is as accurate as my pocket Uniprobe. Every time I probed or used my coin trowel, I was BANG on target! Hunted on lawn and in sand with it. When in the sand; once I had pinpointed the target, all I did, was probe down using my pointer finger only and very time, up came the target! Even if it was only a nail or similar. Normally, I would lift the sand up by the handful and sift it; not anymore.
Found the tone on the machine a bit harsh on the ears, get I'll get used to that.
IN all this is a very well balanced machine that is very light (even with the large coil on it without the coil cover) that simply performs! There is not much that is difficult to learn about it, and I'm certainly going to enjoy using over the next couple of months as I take my long service leave. I'll post my finds as I go.
All the best.
