Wasn't expecting much over the Super 6x8 coil.
Was curious, so I couldn't wait until Sat to bench test it.
Did my bench air testing with the Super 6 maxed out in all modes.
Put the 8" coil on, left the settings at max.

Really, this is great................. a clear 3-4" deeper than the Super 6. Gold, silver rings, silver copper coins, etc.
1.4 grain gold nugget at about 1" from the coil, that's pretty small.
No falsing under the florescent lights, as the Super 6 doesn't.

This is going to be fun.................
Wow Sven, that's great! 3-4" deeper? That's intense! Good luck out in the field!
Good luck with the new coil Sven. One thing that's always bothered me about the webbed coils is they are a real PIA to swing in the woods. If that's a solid coil with no webbing you should go try the woods. Solid coils make life so much easier for the guy who is constantly getting twigs and branches stuck in the webbing. It's so aggravating. I wish they would just make solid coil covers and try not to be so fancy in detailing the coil webbing. Sounds like a great coil! Good luck!
