Ace 250 or Ace 300 ??

[alwayslookin]

I am trying to decide between the Ace 250 (so many good things said here about the 250) and the Ace 300. Basic price difference is only about $10.00...anybody have any experience with the 300 or if it is any better than the 250...I can't really tell by the specs.

Thanks
Dave

ace 300 is an older model

thanks for the info guys. I didn't realize the 300 was an older model. I am currently using an old Whites DI6000 Pro with a 6" coil. It works well although it is a little heavy that is why I am thinking about the 250. Can't really justify (to the wife) much more than that right now.

Well, if your looking to shed weight then the 250 will be a big step forward in that department. The 250 is one super little machine with features you'd expect to find on a $400 + machine!

I don't know much about the BH 505 but I am curious if the 505 has a pinpointer built in? The 250 does have one, and it's the best pinpointer (builtin type) I've ever used! Right on the money once you get used to it!

I paid $160 for my 250 and I purchased it off of eBay Brand NEW! So, it can be had a a very affordable price!

Good luck on whatever you choose.

I have a 300 and like it just fine. I've heard a lot of good things about the 250 as well. It's up to you I also didn't realize the 300 is an older model, perhaps I'll upgrade to a 250 one of these days...
