    F5 question

    For those who have used the Fisher F5, I saw a tube video on the F5 and the guy was saying that his F75 sounded off the same on bottlecaps as it did on quarters. But the F5 in the 4 tone setting had the quarters in the high tone and bottlecaps the mid tone. Is this correct??? I have experienced...

    1880-1940 gun club site

An 8 foot tall mound of dirt with various targets at different heights were used to fire at. When the park was built, in 1955, the tall mound...

    AT Pro coil choices

    Going to get the AT Pro and was wondering about the optional concentric coil. I just saw a air test with the DD coil. In my area ( Texas) the soil isn't too bad, and from what I have read the concentric does get better depth in less mineralized soil than the DD. Would the 9X12 coil be better...
