I'm sorry for making another thread like this after seeing the others, but the price ranges were different and I couldn't find all the information I needed. I already have two metal detectors in mind, but this would be my first one so I'd like to get professional opinions before I go out and buy it since I'm putting so much money into it.
Right now, I have $400 to put into it. I probably won't be able to buy a new one for a few years, so it has to be really good and it has to last. I live in Saginaw, MI USA if that helps out with the dirt or whatever. The two metal detectors that I'm thinking about getting are: Minelab X-Terra 305 and Garret Ace 350. I don't really know much about them, but if I had to choose right now, I think it would be the X-Terra 305. I haven't seen the other metal detectors around the $400 price range, so I'm not sure how they would compare to these two. I would be extremely grateful for any information you can give me that will help me decide on which one to buy.
I plan on metal detecting at least 4 hours a day every single day.
