When to use the MarsMD Sniper 10 x 6 inch
The Sniper is a 10 x 6 inch Double-D coil with high discrimination, built to find targets efficiently in complex environments such as thick vegetation and iron-contaminated sites. MarsMD makes only Double-D coils, and every MarsMD coil is waterproof. MarsMD gives its weight as from 370 g (13.1 oz), since the weight can run higher depending on the detector version. The coil body is filled with high quality epoxy resin inside a high impact resistant, UV protected plastic shell. It has a robust mounting bracket and a screw-on connector, and the cable strain relief keeps the cable entry waterproof. The coil is protected against electrical interference.
Bounty Hunter Gold, Platinum and Titanium owners who hunt among vegetation and junk will find the 10 x 6 inch Sniper easier to steer than a large coil. Approach each signal from two directions to judge whether it is one target or several. Over open ground it is slower going, and the 13 inch Discovery or the 13 x 10 inch Tiger makes more sense there. Our metal detector coil guide explains how coil size and type trade coverage for separation.
