Default new detector

any advice on detectors that work ok for coin shooting, relic hunting, and
beach hunting? on a budget of about $450.00 I like the ace 250 and the
cibola will these do the job or do I need 2 machines?

We all have opinions about that question.
The friendly sponsors will be able to answer it, as they are very informed about what they each sell.

Hi Len, Actually you do have a great detector in the Cibola but if you get into some noisy ground conditions it would be nice to have at least the ability to manual ground balance your machine. The Vaquero can be bought for a bit less than your max limit. It is well worth the money and is featherlite and fast! Also if you can spare a bit more the Tesoro Tejon is even better. Also the Minelab Musketeer is a great one, and the Xterra 50 deserves a look too.

So I would like to help you out Len and just PM me or email or call. Ok I hope to hear from you but in the meantime keep swingin that Cibola! God Bless and Happy Hunting Len!
