    Manticore over E-trac

    I have been hunting alot with my manticore set to all metal, threshold on, iron vol. 0.... eliminates the ferrous audio, theshold lets me know there is iron under the coil .... I like the way the audio is working, quiet most of the time until there is some thing conductive under the coil (I am...

    Needing a new Shovel

    Went with a predator barracuda. No regrets at all. 36", reasonably compact shovel, T handle and I think now I am really glad I purchased the footpads. They add a bit of weight, seem a bit overpriced $32/pr... but are a little wider than the step on the shovel so work really well and are very...

    Manticore over E-trac

    I sold my e-trac for esssentially the same reason, heavy mineralization or lots of iron trash and it not only didn't run with the big dogs, it didn't even get off the porch......

    Manticore over E-trac

    If found the audio on the E was "tuned" to scream silver, it was a no brainer when silver showed up. The Manticore may be able to do the same, I am just not yet familiar enough with it to have played with the audio tuning yet. I have full faith that the Manticore will on average outperform the E...

    Orientation of the M15 coil

    Has anyone experimented with flipping the M15 so that the short end of the coil is forward and the long end facing backwards to see if it balances better and does it still perform as designed. When I looked into this there was some comments that the manufacturers designed it long end forward (as...

    Full Member 50 Author Report Posted just now Today was the first day I got out with the M9, pretty much ran all the same settings altho did spend some time with recovery speeds as something I hadn't noticed befor showed up. When hitting a target the with the m9 it sounds off twice...

    Shovel

    I have been "semi-retired" from metal detecting for the last 5 or 6 years, which is probably why my Lesche lasted so long.... The predator looks awesome tho and is 6" longer which is what I really needed

    Shovel

    The Predator Tools Barracuda showed up today. Very impressed with the build quality and gauge of metal used in the digging end of things.....I ordered with footpads as many times I am hunting with lightweight shoes that have thin soles. Well built and glad I did it as the not only raise the foot...

    Learning the Manticore

    I like YouTube for detector education, it is unfortunate that so many contributors believe they need a full length movie to get their point across...... Everyone wants to be a youtube star it seems allthough there are a few who deliver the goods without all the fluff that I can really...

    Shovel

    I am expecting I will, the Lesche has been great and has been all it was expecdted to be, just outgrew it I guess.... It has been rugged and reliable up until now its too bad it got sold and from what I can gather the new owners have changed materials and they are not holding up as well as the...

    Shovel

    I have a 31" Lesche, has been tough as naiils.... recently bought a predator barracuda that is longer. bought for the added length but hasn't gotten here yet... went with Predator as the reviews on the current Lesche seemed like maybe the new ones were suffering from some quality issues....we...

    Manticore and/or Garrett/whites 24k

    I own a Manticore with m8 m9 coils. I intend to spend some time this summer in the goldfields and am wondering if I should invest in a dedicated gold machine like the Whites/Garrett 24k or similar VHF technology or with the coils I own for the Manticore whether my success rate would be...

    As MacDog says, it's ready to play, don't overthink it.

    Thinking Manticore

    Exactly, I once owned a Whites V3i when it first came out, the most adjustable detector on the planet..... I immediately started trying to learn/adj. the myriad of settings (with it's non-existanat manual", and at one point I got it set up so well, it wouldn't detect a quarter laying on top of...

    Thinking Manticore

    I have lots of confidence in mine that I never had with my 800 and 900. They just never clicked with me. The 2d screen and boosted power put me over the top on buying one. I knew ML had a great detector, but I am a visual type and this one additional piece of information to work with sounded...
