I got the Eldorado yesterday morning. It’s in like new condition. Pics coming later. I took it out for a night hunt. It was likely my last hunt of the season as winter is here. From 12am- 3:15 am I hit my favorite field with the Eldorado. So, right off the bat, I prefer it’s higher tone to that of the vaquero. This field is iron rich with good small signals scattered in. Within 20 minutes I had a general service eagle coat button dug from about 6”. It does disc the large iron a little better than the vaquero, however I still dug plenty of big iron and spikes. Upping the disc did not cut it out further. Overall it’s very comparable to the vaquero, has similar depth but slightly slower recovery perhaps? But I had an easier time power balancing than the vaquero. Very happy with it.
