My Son purchased a Legend a little while back and is doing absolutely great with it. I have been using the Deus 2 as much as possible lately to learn it as best i can.... We were recently hunting a yard/small field area where i have dug civil war bullets in the past. I immediately started finding dropped 3 ringers using the Deus 2 and before digging them i had my son check them with the legend to know what he was listening and looking for. After digging about 4 or so he called me over and said he had a good target....i checked the target with the Deus 2 and got a strong 74-75 signal. Now all the 3 ringers i had just dug were around the 7-8" mark and read 83-84 in the ground and out of the ground. I told him that his signal was a little low for a 3 ringer, but he looked confused.... The legend was actually reading higher on that target than the 3 ringers.... We dug the target and it was and older ringtab with a beaver tail. Even out of the ground the Legend reads the 3 ringers lower than the ringtab?? The Deus 2, AT PR0, Tesoro machines, etc. that i have had in the past always put 3 ringers higher than any ringtabs. Can anyone explain this to me? Thanks!

Guess I wasn't paying much attention. No wonder I haven't had any numbers that high.
