X-terra 705 is a lovely machine. My first detector was a Golden Mask so like yourself a newbi. The GM broke down a matter of weeks from new
so PX it for the 705. It was simple to use from the box.. Found my first hammered with it and loads of artifacts.

how long is a piece of string question = twice the length from the middle to the ends.

Every time I get a piece of string regardless of length, someone will invariably have cut the ends off!!

im in the same boat as you archie.
i got an ace250 and £300-£400 to spend on a new detector but not sure what to go for?
looking towards saving abit more and getting a minelab safari or e-trac but reading about them they seem a little tricky to use for a newbie?
so have you decided on what your going for next?
fisher f5? teknetics omega 8000? minelab x-terra 705?



I have a Safari and it's just turn on and go. Easy peasy to use.

hi welshdigger, still not sure what to go for, my mate is bringing his safari for me to try, he also has an  explorer and it certainly 'looks' heavy.
personally I would love to go for a G2 as a F75 AND T2 look out of my price range.  As I have said before I have had a couple of unexpected bills lately (vets etc) so wont really be able to consider till the end of Jan. still you never know what bargain might turn up yet Grin
Have you decided what to go for yet?  best of luck on your search.

got myself a F75 with a trade in for the 250 from Pepsi's woo hoo!!!
F75 was the model I was looking at before the G2.
Looking forward to lots of digging, reckon the farmer wont need to plough the fields this year once I get the hang of it. Grin
