I'm glad things worked out for you Truth. I've said this before, but I wish Minelab would come out with an 8-9" coil. That one might be the "just right" size.
I completely completely agree

I think this points to the reason why the "stock" coils are just that - stock coils. The manufacturers have deemed, and mainly rightly so, which sizes get you the most bang for the buck.
I know people who have purchased 3-5 coils for a single machine, then settled on one only with the others collecting dust. I have seen some coils big as trash can lids!
The bigger coils do cover alot more ground but if theres trash you will get multiple signals also they will go deeper on bigger targets but you will lose depth on smaller targets because the way the coil works . Ive had the big coil and many others I know have also they can be great depending on wwhat and where your hunting plus you need to ground balance them at half or lower sensitivity..HH Truth
