Im Thinking of gettin Ace 250..I see alot have it and are doing great with it. Is that a good choice? Also what should I get with it as far as coils...The 9x12? or just keep that standard on there? All help would be much appreciated I want to order something tomorrow so it can get here as soon as possible...also if you know a good place to get one from that would be great to....Thanks Dale

The ACE 250 is a great choice! It does well in most catagories. Go for it!

I would go with the Tesoro Silver uMax for the same price--a better machine in terms of durability, with a Lifetime Warranty (unlike the Garrett...) 

BUT--if you really want a meter for where you hunt, go with the Garrett.  The uMax has no meter. 

P.S.--I use no meter--and I'm convinced that's the way to roll. Depends on the type of sites you're hunting...

Well my bro went ahead and ordered the Ace 250. He told me to get the Tesoro Silver uMax so I will be ordering that soon...Just have to wait on them to get here...we have spots lined up so im sure this wait is going to feel like a really long time!!!!

Best of luck to you. You've got two solid machines there--and when you get 'em learned, I'm sure you'll be making the finds. Keep in mind that the larger coil for the Ace is not that necessary, but it is a Must for the uMax--you'll get a lot better depth out of it with the 10 inch concentric coil.

Besides what Buckleboy said, a smaller coil will come in handy for searching around the trash so as to get only one target under the coil at a time.

You are going to love the Umax.
