Don't think it is the machines, just the user's luck. I hunt with my Safari and sometimes outfind my friend with an ATP and sometimes he gets more and better finds than I do. I sometimes hunt with my ATP and find more than my other buddy with a CTX 3030, and sometimes he does better than me. Folks can make a lot of claims, but luck is still the major influence on what we find. Now if you were saying your Minelab was finding more silver than Ace with his ATP I would believe that because in my experience the Minelab explorer series are among the best silver sniffers out there.

most of it is getting the coil over the target
the other part is being able to ID the target before digging
the minelab is just a little more stable on the deep targets then the at pro
