10.5 MF DD air test

[ronhob]

I am curious what kinda depth you guys are getting with your 10.5 MF DD. I have run an X-70 10.5 MFDD coil on my 705 and I know it had good depth in the field, but I can't really remember ever air testing it. I air tested a quarter the other day with my new 10.5 DD and it was around 10" running wide open with nothing Disc.
I haven't got my test garden finished yet, and the ground is still frozen anyway, so I thought I would see if anyone else had similar results. I am thinking the coin in the ground will test deeper, but I don't know for sure. Maybe my old coil was a little hotter as well.

Is that the 10.5 is a DEEP running coil. Relic hunting using either the 70 or 705, 2 tones, all metal, tracking on, I have found bullets at crazy depth. I watched a buddy of mine with a 705 & the 10.5 coil dig a .69 Minnie at 15 inches!! My personal best is 12 inches.

I've dug a lot of silver dimes with that coil that were 10" to 12" deep and when they are that deep they are Seated of Barbers.

Wow! Good to hear about this coil. I just bought one for my 705. Can't wait to use it now.
