I'm using the Hunter. I mainly relic hunt and do a little beach. It's heavy but I can still swing it for 4 hours. I've found good items in areas I've hit more than 3 times. I also use the ATP

I use the Tornado everywhere. Weighs the same as stock. But if you don't mind a little more go for the Storm.

I just got the Storm this year... Picks up tiny targets too, pin points pretty darn good too... I'd recommend this one.

I have the Attack coil. While it may not be quite as good as advertised, it does have its value. Use it till your arm gets tired, then throw your stock coil on and all the sudden you're swinging air.

I had the Nel Big Coil...was terribly unstable and as heavy as an anvil. Perhaps mine was faulty, but I ditched it and bought the 5x8 Garrettt coil...and love it!

I must say, I do love that tiny coil too... The Storm helps me seal over any missed zigs and zags, and primary use for the coil, at least for me, is for doing fields. Dragging it on the grass eases the arm stress and keeps depth as good as it can be...

The NEL tornado is a great all around coil that works in trashy spits as well. Not as good as the 5x8 but does good. It will hit silver dimes with no effort. Great coil for the at series.

I have used the Nel Storm for 3 years now and love it routinely gets the 8" silver dime. Now have the Nel big it's awesome but heavy. Use a harness for both the coils. The coils both go deep the the biggest plus is area covered they don't miss much. Good hunting

I agree with Kodiak43351, I got the tornado about a month ago and am very impressed with its performance. A slow swing in the trashy areas and it'll pick out the coins easily .

I use the Attack coil in open areas and love it. Not the best choice for corn or bean stubble fields.
