Vanquish 340 field test with the metal detecting channel

Ойын-сауық

This was our first day out using the Minelab Vanquish 340s, these little metal detectors surpried both me and Shaun.. these are amazing metal detectors for anyone thinking about giving metal detecting a go..

    Metal detect with my Bounty Hunter Lone Star pro on a WW2 aerial gunnery range when training bomber gunners ( 1939-1945 ) . KIngman AZ, USA all I find is hundreds of 50 cal bullets. Seems like a waste of time, but still fun. Rarely find the steel 30 cal bullets used for fighter training shooting at towed targets. During the summer have to go out before dawn and get back home before 9 am when the temp hits 30C.

    Hi Lads, Well you gave them a good run out, I think they are like any machine, you need to learn what the machine is telling you, the tones,the numbers..but I think its a good intro detector, the price is good, so anyone just starting out it would be ideal. I will have the same problem with the Apex, will need to learn it, but when it comes down to it, a coin, say a silver sixpence can give you a load of different signals, if its deep or shallow, the orientation of the coin, the soil conditions, so we have to dig everything on a good site, because you just never know...!!! Catch you soon Take care lads Tom

    In my opinion you done need a pinpoint function, I have one on my nox 800 and I use it some times but if you go over the target in a cross direction you can pretty much pinpoint the location anyways.. i think the 340 is a beast of a machine! Thanks for watching :-)

    100%, I have the Minelab Equinox 800 but i always keep the Vanquish 340 in the car as a back up, if you can stretch to the vanquish 440 then you will get more features but if you want a top machine for around the £230 mark then the Vanquish 340 is the one, it uses the same tech as the equinox with its mult frequncy and works a dream on the wet sands. The only down side is it is not waterproof (the coil is) so you will have to buy a cheap cover for the control box. Happy hunting matey

Garrett are a well known and respected brand so if this is somthing you are familiar with then you may enjoy them better :-) 😀 happy hunting matey 😀

I dug up like 20 to 30 plugs in 2 hours and even with a pinpointer I could only locate maybe 8 of the targets, the rest would just beep but could never find anything no matter how far down I went. It really annoyed me quick. And I'm sorry, but the new Simplex seems to have it's own problems as well. I'll stick with AT Pro for now. Sorry.
