Discrimination on Ace250

[TXPlugKutter]

Just a simple question...I have read many posts on here that rings, gold and other nice items show up as pulltabs. On my Ace 250 I have the pulltab discriminated out. Do I need to replace the notch so it will pick up pulltabs?? or leave it on the factory coin settings and dig strong signals??

Thanks..

if you are in coin mode you will probably not find gold rings. try the jewelry setting or better yet, run it wide open and only notch out the last two segments on the left. that way you are only discriminating out iron. you will dig a lot of trash this way but you also wont miss much. also remember, the more discrim you use, the less depth you will get.

Thank you. I am still learning the Ace250 and any help I can get I greatly appreciate it. I have found a few old coins with it but I don't want to miss out on anything of value.

the ACE 250 is a really great machine for the $$. i really like mine. now if i can only pry it out of my brothers hands! he has taken a liking to it too, and since i have other machines to use i will probably never see it again! lol

If you want to know all about the ace 250 email ([email protected]) or go to youtube and type in crackbadger or ace 250 and watch the videos. This will be a big help to you. He will tell you same thing I will, go back to the factory settings, hunt in the jewelry mode with the sens on 3-4 and dig every signal. Over time you will get to know your machine. The ace 250 is great and I use mine all the time to skim the top for new drops. We have all the top minelab products and still use the ace first when we hit a new area. I was out today and never took my SE out of the truck. My 9 yo and I were having a blast finding new clad and jewelry on a beach just outside the Tampa airport.

GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY HUNTING --- KINGPULLTAB
