Hello from Virginia

[Drkstr62]

Hello...I'm new here and new to the hobby. I have not got a MD yet and I am still researching MD's. I have been looking at the BH Time Ranger...found online new for less then $200.
I'd like to get some opinions and thoughts about this MD. I have also been looking at the Pioneer 505.

I suggest looking through the archives. There have been plenty of discussions about nearly every MD made by BH.

Good luck,

Mark

I looked at the 505 but a little out of my price range right now.

Unfortunately all of the parks around here are off limits to metal detecting. I have been doing some MD'ing a nearby school.

Hey dkstr62. If you want a 505 look on Kelly co metal detectors in their used refurbished demo tab on the left hand side of the screen. The have 505s for $199 plus 14.99 shipping in their scratch and dents section. My 505 does well. I prefer using the 4" coil on it. If you pm me I can tell you what detector I use the most now and would have bought 1stif I would have known about it. Found my best stuff with it. Good luck and hh.
