I’m looking at the Garrett ATX and the minelab CTX3030. I am civil war relic hunting in woods , fields, streams and I’m not sure which one will give me the most depth and accuracy in any or all of those places. I have a vanquish that gets me down a good foot when it’s just a grassy area. I need to know my machine can go much deeper. I know I’m missing some things because they are much deeper. I feel I’m just scratching the surface .

There are a lot of factors that play a part in depth. Most hobby detectors are VLF (very low frequency), like your Vanquish, and the depth depends on the soil conditions and the target size. When it comes to hobby detectors, we like to safely say the size of the coil is about how deep it will go. For example an 11 inch coil will typically pick up targets at 11 inches. The PI (pulse induction), like the ATX are a different type of detector and will give you the most depth. Again coil size, target size and soil conditions play a part but typically can go about 16 inches on a coin size target. To get those real deep civil war targets, most use a PI machine.
