Ordered A 14” x 11” DD Reaper Searchcoil For The APEX And Tried It Out....."WOW"

I am a great fan of the AT Series for general hunting needs in my local. I have always enjoyed it's sensitivity and ID/audio abilities. Someone suggested I try the Reaper coil on the APEX for similar results. Well, after about an hours worth of playing with the controls, changing frequencies etc. I was very impressed. Now I have never really been a fan of large coils, however, this coil works great! It balances well with the APEX ergonomically, remains sensitive to tiny objects and really bangs hard on the higher conductors like silver and copper. I presume it gets better depth due to it's size and other previous user's comments, but at this point that's not an issue for me. This coil, combined with the ability to change frequencies/multi-frequencies is a great fit! I am going to do several more hunts to see how well it does.

That’s great. I actually just received my Reaper coil for the AT Max today from @Richard@BackwoodsDetectors . Tested it a little & hunted with it this evening, mostly in Motion All Metal trying to reach some deeper targets in my very dry conditions. It is definitely deeper than the stock coil, especially in Disc modes. Very good sensitivity to small targets & very stabile. A bit heavier but I just shorten the shaft one notch. I’m glad to have it & will use it quite a bit.

It sounds like a good "Fit" for the AT MAX also. Sometimes adding a new coil to an existing detector is like getting a new machine.
