    Just ordered a "used" Manticore

    Great to hear you are back on your feet and ready to try your new Manticore. My advice is to start with all terrain general for a couple weeks learning the sounds etc. and go from there.

    The New Garrett VORTEX VX9 Just Got A Whole Lot Better!

    I owned and eventually sold a company manufacturing scanning and optimization systems used for sensing and evaluating random materials for creating custom and standard sized products, truly a great comparison to metal detecting, (use a sensor, evaluate the feedback, make a decision, use lots of...

    Manticore loves iron

    I owned a v3i when they first came out, lasted about 6 months..... at that time there was not enough users to provide meaningful information about the unit and the Whites manual was an atrocious POS.... I flamed badly.... it was to complicated and without a fundamentally sound manual which it...

    Is the chest all metal, how large. What general area are you looking. The ground mineralization in the location you are looking will have an affect on depth as iron mineralization is like looking through fog... in low mineralizaiton areas may not be much of an issue at all. VlF detectors and PI...

    24"? That's pretty deep ... what are you looking for? Where do you plan to search? mineralized soil or fresh or salt beach or?, how big of an object do you want to find at that depth? A bit of clarification related to your goals and where you are might help people give you some insight. My...
