[QUOTE="Hotrock, post: 255481, member: 7728"] Thanks for the replies, I can actually see myself ending up with both eventually. I grew up prospecting with my family north of Kal and those were the days of Garrett ADS and Groundhogs and we did well on small (10 grammers) up to the biggest at 8.5oz. I have had a prospecting hiatus for some time now building up a career in the mining industry and my own businesses and its time to get back on the horse. I intend to return one day to all of our old patches with a 2300 because the stuff we didn't detect we dryblowed with great success, also have an area where we sunk a shallow shaft for 42oz which was a pocket of fine (free) gold and small nuggets and also eventually dug an open cut on one of our good patches, the 2300 would be a perfect machine for that. I now live in Darwin and will be exploring for new ground possibly with the view to peg a lease plus visiting fairly worked area renown for small gold such as Bridge creek so I think the best machine at this stage will be the 4500.
