I have been searching a park that used to be the site of an old German gun club. Competition shooting matches were held on the grounds between 1880-1940. 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 of dirt was leveled across the park.
I had used my 2 Whites detectors and never could get thru all the trash items in the park.
Now that I got an AT Pro iron and trash is no problem---it can read all the targets very well---- unlike the Whites I had used.
Since I was looking for lead bullets and old casings I dug every signal.
Got lots of trash.......

dug a few lead and 2 wheat cents......

The usual clad coins.....just a couple of dollars.
And 2 old casings... a WRA Co. 32 40 and a S A Corp 250 3000 both from rifles that were very acurate up to 200 yards and these casings and series are not factory made anymore. Perfect bullets for competition shooting at an old German gun club site.

The AT Pro does excellent in locating targets in areas with what seems like hundreds of targets in the ground... it locates each one and zeros in on them no matter what metal it is. It ID's it right next to another metal item with no problem. The other 12 detectors I had owned in the last 42 years couldn't do this, like the AT Pro can. My 13th detector------who says 13 is unlucky?????
