Jeff McClendon Posted March 19, 2023 Author Share Posted March 19, 2023 51 minutes ago, Valens Legacy said: Nice hunt with a good ratio of coins to pull tabs. Good luck on your next hunt. The pull tabs were dug because they were possible gold jewelry targets. Using Deus 2 with its target ID spread in the low to mid nonferrous range, there is very little overlap of pull tabs and US nickels unless the tabs are damaged. I knew those 21 nickels were either nickels or gold jewelry. Same with the pull tabs. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPT_GhostLight Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Dang, Jeff, you really spanked that hunt, congrats! and well done! Plus 1 on the Tek-Point/F-Pulse. I've started carry my F-Pulse again with the MI-6 and use it to hit those really deep targets that are just beyond the reach of the MI-6. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This interests me, but maybe it's a mineralization thing. 🤔 I have an F-Pulse now, and haven't found it to be any more useful than the MI-6. I do run the MI-6 at full sensitivity however, and find it detects targets far deeper and more accurately. Guess I'll add it to my bag for Culpeper next week. 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strick Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 All I have to say is that you are very handy with a screw driver..I don't know if I can dig out 9" deep coin with a probe or screw driver. 3-4 inches no problem...nice shooting there Jeff strick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind, this is hunting in a park situation where I can't dig plugs and have to pinpoint from the surface. I run my MI-6 at 49 on the D2 and the F-Pulse will usually go about an inch or so deeper and if I "super tune" it, it will go an easy 3-4 inches deeper. But in a relic hunt situation where I can dig with a shovel, I don't need to use the F-Pulse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 PI pinpointers do not go deeper than IB pinpointers in mild ground. They simply lose depth at a far smaller rate as ground mineralization increases. The worse the ground, the better the PI unit will look relative to the IB models. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
