Hey J55, Welcome to TQ. I live just down the rd from you, and have worked a lot in Person county. Maybe we can get together sometime and hunt. I have a Ace 250 you can try out to see if that is what you want. It is a second machine, so you wouldn't interrupt my hunting. You have any places up that way to hunt?

Earl

Welcome to the site Jeeper55!! The Ace 250 is a nice machine and will do you well. Make sure to give one of our sponsors a call to talk about your needs.

I also am in NC (Burlington). Not far at all. One of these days we could get up and do a hunt, Beale.

Welcome to the forum Jeeper55!

If you are like me, you won't wait until Christmas. I opened my ACE250 early and haven't regretted it yet. It is a great detector! I just wish I had more time to use it.

Welcome, Jeeper. Here's another from NC (Raleigh). I had a fourth cousin up your way. He was a baseball player named Enos. Maybe you knew him.
