Hello folks!
I want to start by saying that I am not a collector or hunter, but this sounds like a fun hobby that I may get into later in life when I might have more time.
I need help! My yard is riddled with .22 caliber lead air rifle pellets! And it as recently come to my attention that my chickens have been eating them. Clearly this is an issue since our family eats the eggs. Since lead is non-ferrous, I borrowed a metal detector from a friend. The problem is I'm really confused about how to use it, and particularly how to find tiny pieces of lead near or at the surface. I did read the manual, but I'm still struggling. The model is Bounty Hunter pioneer 505. I'm sure it's an amature model compared to what you all have, but it's all I have right now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
