The manual said calibration is on 170, but have read on forums that some people us 180 are does make any difference?
 
It don't make any difference, but being most use the 180 number when talking about what some targets will read it makes it easier to learn. You can use any numbers you want and learn what each good target will read as, but for me I like the 180 numbers as my copper pennies, clad and silver will read 179-180 if you calibrated for that. The IH, some older Wheaties and the new zinc penny will be 176-177 while most of my nickles will be 144-145.
I think why Minelab uses the 170 numbers is they didn't want to copy what Sun Ray used.
