Had a bit of time for a quick hunt with the Explorer II/stock coil setup while out and about today...no pix from the field but these were my digs
36 cents in clad, pulltab, old buckle and a washer, 5 wheats, a vintage Matchbox Austin A50 with several layers of paint
that was in a bad rollover...
and a silver...
#39...
was a bit different running the Ex II instead of the XS for the first time in a couple months...forgot how the black FBS upper/lower rod setups wobble and twist at the camlock while the tan upper/lower XS rods don't...nice to see the screen update a tad quicker though compared to the XS when I got over the Rosie, but to me the silver has a slightly sweeter sound on the XS. Either one works for me though, and unless I'm busy finding Large Cents instead
they almost always brings home the silver
Well, that's it for the outing so thanks for looking, see you after the next...and Happy Hunting!
