Back in the 1990s I used to hunt a spot with my Specturm XLT that had produced some nice Civil War relics. While the XLT is a solid machine, its not really known for its depth abilities. So I decided to go re-hunt the site with my CTX to see if I could get some targets that were maybe slightly out of reach before.. I ended up finding several deeper relics and had a blast! Not all of the targets are from the spot I had hunted in the past.. Some were from the lot right next to it, but the majority of the deeper targets were from the original spot.
Ended up finding several miniballs, musket balls, a fuse adapter, some IHPs, and several other coins. Super fun hunt!
Also met up with DiggerDug from the forum for a few hours last Sunday. We found a few relics and scouted some potential Civil War spots which will hopefully produce more relics in future hunts.
Anyway, pics below and here's a YouTube vid for those who care to see the targets as they were dug:
