Nugget Shooter 3,656 Posted January 5, 2014 Yes I do Mike, from what seeing so far GPX still has an edge on depth, but I am surprised at how sensitive and deep the ATX is proving itself to go as well as being very simple to use.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goldstudmuffin 9 Posted January 6, 2014 Bill, do you have the 20" deep seeker mono for the ATX? I'd love to hear testing results with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoser John 1,208 Posted January 6, 2014 Hahahaha how many 5+ ozrs do ya see on a regular basis. Use a 1/2 dwt nugget and see whatz really up in a test as this test really proves nuttn' . I'm lookn' for a water unit myself currently. Looks like new minelab vs ATX are the frontrunners and you sell'm both Bill,cool-John Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
garimpo 2,011 Posted January 6, 2014 HJ I haven't seen any test results on the Minelab 2300 but I have tried the ATX down here. That big DD coil that comes with it will nail small nuggets. It's not in the class of the Fisher Gold Bugs on little nugs but then what PI is?Another thing I like about the ATX is the fact Garrett has three different coils for it, the stock 12" DD and the 8" mono and the 20" mono. I gotta be careful that I don't fool around and talk myself into buying one!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
homefire 2,415 Posted January 6, 2014 Looking like a fine machine at this point. Garrett has a super back up on support and Maintenance. Ok, Does not have the Rep of a 5000 but it just opened up. Less then half the Price of the 5000 I'm thinking it is going to be a Winner. I think this is just a toned version of there mine detector. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
garimpo 2,011 Posted January 6, 2014 Homey the reps I talked too here said it is the same as their mine detector except for the software inside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
