Garrett ACE 300 Metal Detector

The Garrett ACE 300 is a perfect metal detector for beginners and even the more advanced users.

It offers great detection depth, sturdy and hard wearing design, and plenty of high-tech features including one touch treasure hunting, five search modes, a continuous depth indicator and pinpoint targeting.

Thanks to pinpoint targeting, the users have the ability to accurately determine the location of a specific target.

The Garrett ACE 300 was designed with your comfort in mind. The stem and armrest are easily adjustable. The detector is also packed with a headphone jack.

The detector can be disassembled into three pieces no longer than 24 inches. This makes it really easy to transport and carry around.

By using headphones, you can accurately distinguish different tones. This will help you decide if something is worth digging or just a piece of trash.

Its 7 by 10 inch PROformance submersible search coil offers more coverage and better depth. It is worth noting that the search coil and the coil shaft are waterproof, but the control box isn’t.

However, Garrett has solution to this! You can buy the ACE 300 ACE Environmental cover-up that will help you protect the detector against weather.

Another great feature it has is the battery condition indicator.

It is an upgraded version of the company’s ACE 150 detector. It brings some new features that make detecting experience much easier.

The ACE 200 has four sensitivity adjustments, which is really useful if you are planning on detecting in an area with a lot of ground mineralization.

As it weighs only 3 pounds it is great for those planning on going on an all-day hunt. You will definitely not have sore arms after using it.

The ACE 200 comes with a 6.5 by 9 inch coil, which is a great size for general relic hunting.

The coil is not so small that you lose depth when searching for targets, but it is also not so big that it becomes hard separating targets when you find multiple signals in the same area.

Just like many other Garrett detectors, the ACE 200 features a Digital Target ID that helps you work out the specific type of metal buried in the ground. You can identify what you’re going to dig up even before you start.
