[QUOTE="loamer, post: 41818, member: 981"] I can only think of using a smaller mono coil. I run a 4500 on mineralised ground and sometimes use audio type quiet with the gain and stab up as high as I can handle to lift the target signals. Thats because they can lose performance in quiet. What about the 5000 setting - 'boost audio' with the fine gold timing? Just seems odd as with the 4500 I can usually get some very small targets but if hunting for them (mullock heaps) I switch to the smaller 8" mono and have no problems. Having said all of that, I have most definitely seen 5000s pinging wee bits of gold, generally off mullock heaps. Here is a link to the Hallowell & Co table of shot weights I use: the aussie #7 is about 1.46 grains. My maths says its equal to: 1.46gr = 0.094606grams so the .1 is about right. One of the 5000 gurus may be able to give you a stear. [/QUOTE]
