Target size for minelab PI's?

I am just curious how the models stack up as far as sensitivity to smaller nuggets? I know the GPX5000 is probably the best for small gold. Just wondering how small of nuggets people have picked up with previous models? I have an Infinium that will only hit about a .3g nugget. I know that most if not all the Minelab PI's will do better than that. Which model was the first to hit (regularly) less than .1g? Looking to upgrade when the funds add up. Thanks
 
Hi earlier this week i picked up a 0.2 using a gp extreme with a 14x7 mono nugget finder coil it was at about 3 inch's and a good single.If you are using any pi from the extreme up you will find small gold,concentration and working slow is the way to go .The extreme has a ground balance button fitted to it so i can run in fixed tracking,i have owned all other minelab detectors the 5000 will find gold that i cannot ever hear its the best as far as handling the ground running quiet and finding gold you must work slow and concentrate
 
Not sure about gold but I've found single pellets of #8 shot using both the 11" Minelab Commander DD coil and a 14" Coiltek DD A.I. coil.
