[QUOTE="G0lddigg@, post: 178175, member: 357"] im bias there two sides to it really, ive said a million times if i knew nothing about prospecting and bought an sdc2300 and got started i would be 100% happy with the investment. Fact is you can go out with an sdc and hit mullock heaps and worked areas and find gold 99% of the time. You can also slap on a small coil and find sub .1 gram gold with a 4500 yet you cna put a 22 inch coil on a 4500 and punch DEEP!!! real deep they are different beasts. another huge benefit of the sdc is it will pickup disseminated gold so if you are interested in getting into rock crushing this is a huge bonus. You can take the sdc with you in a backpack without a second preparation, so for hiking or even flying interstate its awesome. as i found out its not so good in crushed rock areas and again the 4500 runs laps around it in this situation. but timing wise and bang for buck... GPX 4500 every day of the week, between you and me the 4500's come with two coils, a mono and a dd but dont tell anyone :) [/QUOTE]
