- Today we will talk about the Minelab SDC 2300 metal detector as well as doing a bit of gold nugget hunting here in Arizona. It sure is nice to have temps in the 70s now and hunting gold nuggets is back on full steam ahead.

Enjoy your videos, Bill. I just got my SDC 2300 this week. Your videos featuring the machine and all the info you share helped me make my choice. Keep it up, man. Good hunting.
I love how you can use the coil on its edge to detect in crevices
That .45ACP case and bullet could have come from when Patton was training for D-Day in '44. Check the headstamp.
Got my order Bill. Thanks so much for answering all my questions and making the transaction so darn easy. I'm always amazed at how fast you get stuff to my doorstep. Great info and nice gold buddy. Wishing you all the best. Good luck, happy hunting and take care.
Thanks Shawn!
Beautiful nugget, after digging nail, bullet, broken horse shoe, tack, rolled up foil, casing which I'm good at finding and finally a gold nugget makes your heart jump and puts a great big smile on me.
It does indeed my friend
watching again
Nice work Bill, and thanks for the knowledge.
Any nugget makes for a good day ! Thanks for sharing Bill ! 🤠⚒⛏👍
That is an interesting chunk. Thanks for the tips.
Good video Bill. Thanks for sharing with the community. Merry Christmas brother and to all your subscribers.😎👍👍👌👌⛏⛏🎄🎄
Same to you Chuck
Good video, i own a SDC 2300 for 11 months now and love it and even more now with a differant coil, coiltek 10" fitted and i now get deeper small nuggets than before 😊👍🏻
Haven't tried one of the Coiltek coils yet Mick, but plan to
I also have 3 mates here in Australia using the small pointy one and there also working great and they say there great in the thick bush - grass areas and pick up real small targets, so i plan to buy one soon, the only down side with the coiltek coils is there not water proof but okay to use in a little rain. Also if you get the lose battery sudden turn offs we put a roll of tape as wide as the battery once around the battery with a 5mm over lay and then no more sudden shut off restarts. I enjoy watching your videos
Used my friends sdc one time and really liked it, easy to use and way more sensitive to small gold then the GPX 's even with a sadie or evo coil.
Bill, I like the format of this video. In office machine overview and then directly to the field detecting for Gold. Nice
Thank you very much, Ross, always like hearing viewers opinions
Thanks for the info an honest chat about the sdc, as I've been thinking of purchasing one. I have the gold monster but when I'm in hot ground the monster is just way to noisy. So PI machine is needed.
Great vid keep them coming. Subscribion earned. 👍Jules from Just Pan It in Tasmania Australia 🍻👍
Finally going to get out next Wednesday or Thursday can't wait. Keep those videos coming. Sometimes I wish I had not sold my SDC 2300. But I did and it's gone.
Good luck!
When I get to those really small targets in the scoop i dump the little bit of material onto the coil and you can sort through it with your finger. I also carry a magnet, saves a lot of time searching through the scoop for those tiny pieces of rust and iron 👌🏻
instablaster...
Bill another great video showing the process of finding that piece of gold. Well done. Cheers Bill
Glad you enjoyed it
@@NUGGETSHOOTER You always have some tidbit of information take a ways !
I just love seeing you get gold out there Bill, congrats , that nugget was strange looking !
Steve.
yes it was
Enjoyed the explanation and the hunt.
Glad you enjoyed it
you are a cool dude nugget shooter,...i swing an sdc 2300 in the goldfields of far north Queensland Australia and have found a shit tin of gold, biggest being 11 grams at near on 300 mm. its a great machine in my area with a lot of hot rocks.
Thank you for this information👍
My pleasure
Great info ! Now you have me Thinkin' which machine to buy ! I've saved enough to purchase the GM 1000, looks like I'll be checkin' "She who must be
Obeyed's " purse and pockets for loose change (they do it, don't they) ! 🙈
Keep em" comming, I'll be watchin' ! 😉😁😎
I was so worried about you breaking your glass cabinet door ;I had to start you up again.Ha
Enjoyed the video. I’d be interested to see how you hook-up the detector to your vest rig.
While you're 'guessing' what one target is, based on the lack of a VDI readout; I've already covered 10+ targets-that are all iron, aluminum, junk, etc. A VDI readout show the number range that gold reads out at. But you wanna dig 30+ mins- on one target based on a detector's guess... This unit is overpriced, just like the Gold Monster. You WILL dig almost every target with this unit, and it takes ONE HOUR to dig out a 1ft deep target- in the tough caliche desert ground. I've used Garrett ATX's, GBII's, etc, both with no VDI readout-and got rid of them. Sure; the sound has alot to do with these units-but a VDI readout gives me a conclusion instantly. Save yourselve's a pile of money, folks; get an Equinox 800, even a Whites MXT. Ive' been trying to tell buyers for a couple years that; the Minelab Gold Monster and similar non-VDI units are hyped-up detectors. My 14 year old Whites MXT will hit a nickel at 16 inches; the equivelant to a one ounce gold nugget, (With the smaller Eclipse 5.3 mono coil,)It will hit a #8/.080 birdshot bb also. Maybe folks will wise up and stop dropping a $1,000.00 bucks and more-on the GM and SDC2300.
You are obviously not a nugget hunter or you would understand why discrimination is not reliable in the goldfields. Cheers
Videos are great. I don’t know why but I love the nugget shooter out
Thanks Jon
Great Video, love the SDC 2300 so portable and great for desert gold. I think the nugget looked like a mushroom!
It does! lol didn't notice at first
Just got one; looking forward to learning this capper; thanks brother nice work🥾
Good luck! Glad to help...
wish we had gold big enough for a detector to find around here! the gold seems to be fly speck and mini micro fine, it would be nice to have a machine that would point that out it save a lot of wear on the back! 60s sounds beautiful after seeing it was only +2F. this morning!
That would be cool!
Nice Ariel video introduction! Sure looked cool. Keep hunt in’
Thanks Woody
Coolest intro ever! Curious, why can't we see the date this was posted? Oh dear, did youtube strike that away like seeing downvotes?
Hi Bill, can you show us how u first start up the machine. Do u put it on the ground or hold it in the air? You say it gets deep gold but ive never had that. I change back and forth between my 2300 and my 4800. Yes its a 4800. Not many around.
Nice little T nugget , watch out Tammy may claim that one.😊
Well done your a great detector operator. Troy from Kalgoorlie
The SDC is a awesome machine. Just wish it was more affordable. That's a really cool nugget. I retire in August and may have to break down and buy the SDC. Thanks for the excellent video. 🇺🇸👍😎⛏
Thanks Geno, it is indeed a great detector
thanks for the video someday I'll get me a new detector !!!!!!
that day has come !!!!! Watching again !!!!!
Great vid Bill. Sdc2300 is all that we use where we go in Australia. Finds big and small gold.
How do you do your intro with your drone? It looks so cool.
It is preset on Mavic Air
I think I may have found the best machine for up here. Time to go shopping eh. Always great to see an award for your troubles my friend. Reason for thanks eh.
Absolutely
Great episode! Looks to be a great machine...hh..RD
Sweet adventure out in a beautiful area clean up of garbage cool awesome score a gold nugget oh ya cool machine awesome video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Always with you and Bill
Morning Bill! Question regarding the SD2300. There are several videos on how to operate the SDC, but since it doesn’t offer a readout to help the user identify if the target is ferrous or non ferrous, perhaps you would consider making a video drawing on your own experience interpreting the signals. I know learning to identify diggable “gold signals” comes through experience and getting to know your machine, but you have a wealth of experience and knowledge your viewers could benefit from. Just a thought. Have a great day “my friend”.
I dig ALL targets Jeff, there is no discrimination on the 6000 and 7000 either. Discrimination on a gold detector is not reliable and will cause one to walk away from gold. Even on my Equinox 800 and Gold Monster 1000 i NEVER use discrimination when hunting nuggets
Good little nugget, like a kangaroo.
I would love one of those 2300 they bout 5k au, I have my GMonster only.
Very hard in the western Australian gold fields with the Gm.. It s what I have and Can afford. I'm going out for a run this week around Coolgardie area about 500 to 600 Ks away from Perth hope to find some nuggets in the hot weather
Good luck!
I don’t understand it all ,but a person I watch put some of his videos on Newtube.app. I bet even if the weather is cold the sun feels pretty good ,and you sound relaxed. One thing that is hard for some to learn, God want us to enjoy life. Good video and a neat looking nugget. PS those cactus look cool too.
I’m always interested in PI especially the SDC.. The 3k+ is a bit of a deal killer for me.. however I keep looking at it?
The light weight of my GM1000, GB2 and older Whites GM2 are so light and convenient it’s difficult to justify a high performance SDC 2300.
Question sir.. maybe you can pass along to Minelabs.. the GM1000 li-on battery is over a 100 bucks? I have trouble paying 100+ bucks for a 7.2v li-on backup battery that is hugely expensive? 20 bucks is more inline..
I can screw around and build a much higher performance backup li-on for 20 bucks.. most can’t and are forced to buy or use the lousy AA pack? I am not impressed with the over priced li-on battery and charging 100+ is totally out of line?
New Replacement li-on battery for my drone 20 bucks, OEM GoPro battery 15 bucks?
They need to come to grips with this battery pricing. However I really like the GM1000 and is a fairly good price.. li-on battery not so much.
Really enjoy your channel Bill!
Keep swinging dude!
✌️PT
I really want to get one of those
One of those on my x-mass list minelab sdc 2300 if you can swing it Santa,I've been good.lol
Hi there love your videos and your scoop just wondering where you got it from?.

Hi bill.
Is there a good wireless headphones for the gm 1000 and the sdc2300 units?

Hallo bill, dapatkah kamu memberi tahu saya dimana harus beli alati SDC 2300 ini?
wow
I’d like to know what settings were you on! What sensitivity and how many clicks of threshold?
Sensitivity was at 3 and threshold almost all the way up because I was sharing signals with the camera
Scorpion Nugget!
Those barbs will actually go through your boot? wow!
yes they will Mark and ouch!
Where can one buy that protective cover for the SDC?

Thanks Bill. Nice to get an honest evaluation of metal detectors, tips & use.
Thanks 👍
The nugget kind of looked like a mushroom at the end there. It's always better to find that cholla before it finds you!!
How do you rate the 1000 to the 2300 .? I do have the minelab 1000 and really like it.
like comparing apples to oranges because is a PI and the other a VLF so different technology equals different results
Great hunt,& the clearest explanation I've heard about a pulse induction machine! Thanks, Bill!👍 🇺🇸
Glad to help Lester
Where do i get the scoop with the riffels in it

Thanks for the video! I just picked up the SDC 2300 and I can't wait until I have a some free time to use it. I've used Garrett for several years and interested in trying the Minelab. Nice little nugget! I always like you r videos. Again, thanks!
Good choice!
Mr Bill have question is this machine good to get a big pots 6 or 7 foots deep ? Please let know
No it will not
@@NUGGETSHOOTER thank you very much
Thanks for the review! I've been considering the SDC for some time now, really like how it folds down, gets tiring having my VLF sticking up out of my backpack when I'm hiking into an area. If it can hear that led shot I'm sure it will hear the small gold in my area.
It is indeed good for all you mentioned
@@NUGGETSHOOTER please, am from Ghana, and I need one the price.
I saw that you are dealer for XP detectors. Have you ever tried a Deus in the goldfields?
Yes I have and though sensitive enough to use one can not take advantage of it because it is a bit to unstable (for me at least) and this make it very difficult to hear the small targets.
@@NUGGETSHOOTER Thanks for the reply.
Definitely a sensitive machine, and I couldn’t see it close up but I agree it looks like lightning coming down out of a cloud very cool nugget, great find. Nice to see the price drop on the 2300 I need to prospect a lot more gold though before I can purchase one lol. great video as always thx for sharing see you on the next one👍🏻👊🏻
Cool finds brother very good hunt if you are free 9pm uk time tonight iam live pop in buddy your brother tyson

@@NUGGETSHOOTER Awesome! Thanks again Bill.
That thing is remarkably sensitive!!!!
Ill trade you about 30 degrees anytime!!!!!
@ Jason Hi of 66 today low of 41 sure is great in the winter but you can have it in the summer I’ve had enough of the heat LOL
I was hoping to see you find a nugget about 4 or 5 feet deep
lol
