Valid points on the previous posts, I hunt with a excal 1000 the old blue and they can be found on eBay for less then you will pay for either, dual field or the beach hunter 300 ID. I've owned both of them and can tell you this, it all boils down to will you mind digging A LOT of deep junk targets? If so I wouldn't recommend the dual field. If you don't mind then go for it, it's super deep but be forewarned, it goes DEEP and that's good until you've dug 3/4's of your hunt deep for trash such as iron chunks, sparklers, fishing hooks, bottle caps, tin foil, nails, screws, washers, jean grommets, ect. The list goes on, and on and on! Yes you will find deep goodies also but all the junk had me put mine up for sale 3 times. If those are your only choices then go with the beach hunter 300 ID. I've owned it found good targets, passed up on a lot of iron, really enjoyed the LED lights but ground balancing was a drag. Don't be fooled by it being a VLF that machine can find deep targets due to the 12" coil. Problem with the coils on both are they float and in the surf they'll flip up a lot. I personally would recommend a excal 1000 old blue one over the other 2 whites but if that's all you want and don't want all the junk I'd go with the BH 300 ID.
Good luck in your decision.
If you decide to go with a whites shoot me a PM with your address and I'll send you a $5 off token. Not much but it helps.
