    My neighbor got me hooked on metal detecting so my plan is to buy a ace-250 to start out hunting.

    Welcome to the forum! The ACE 250 is a great detector to start with. It's the one I used at first, and I found many great things with it. Looking forward to seeing your finds

    Welcome aboard.

    As I mentioned in your other thread, you'll like the 250. |
    I've traveled a long way, and many of the roads weren't paved.

    A big welcome from Iowa ACE-250Z.

    It's nice to see another detectorist from the midwest. The Ace 250 is a nice machine... I have one too.
    The 'yeller-feller' put many nice oldies in my pocket. Hope it does the same for you. :->
