I'll buy one of these when available in my part of western Australia in the goldfields region. I use my trusted and faithful GPX 4500 stock standard ( built in Australia in Adelaide at the Minelab factory - my machine was built in 2007 before manufacturing was relocated to China or Taiwan factory assembly plants. I'm going to upgrade but still keep my 4500 , I just want to do comparison between the 2 machines with same size coils and with mono and DD coils on a target pad I've got out in my area of pre buried targets at certain depths and size of targets. I use lead sinkers and weights as lead gives same tone as gold. Either way it'll be good to own one of these new machines to see how it runs against the 4500 on sensitivity and depth.
@@项籍-v9t yes I've used the GPX 6000 very nice machine , very sensitive as well. That'll be my next purchase after the Axiom as there's areas here in WA which the 6000 would go very well.
Can I ask which coil you were using there? Was it the DD or Mono? AS here in Victoria, Australia - my DD was lucky to get a shotgun pellet within 2 inches of the surface. The way I am seeing some other Axioms working it often makes me wonder if mine is faulty? I have found targets with the larger DD, but have zero confidence in it's ability over the smaller 7x11 mono. I run pretty much the same settings as you with the exception of switching between slow and medium depending on the ground. I also find maximum sensitivity likes hot rocks.
Hi Steve I have the gpx6000 I'm using for gold , but live in a very trashy area with rusty iron tacks etc and the all the extra digging is killing me ,I'm wondering if the axiom would suit my conditions better ,with dd coil and iron discrimination, is the coil on par with the mono ,cheers from Australia
I'll find out in the next 3 days as I love in western Australia in the goldfields and very familiar with the hot ground we have here and heavy mineralisation. I got my Axiom this morning arrived from supplier so next few days is resting time at night as it's almost 40⁰ C during the day here now in summer.
@@rickseifert5139 great buddy let me know! Good luck as well. I went there this year October and I was already sick for 2 days as it’s was hot. Idk how u deal now lol
Hello! We have successfully tested the Axiom across Australia and Africa in highly mineralized soil! It is built to perform in the harshest soil conditions. We don't think you'll be disappointed if you take the time to learn the machine!
@@robmart5920 Messes with it? I dunno... I think it'd be easier to figure out how to utilize a pin pointer somehow, without it messing with the detector (ie, setting it down a few feet away or maybe switching it off for a minute, etc.) than it would be to just not use a pinpointer at all and have to keep dragging the detector across the rocks repeatedly like that... 😬 But hey, that's just me. I will admit, I've never gone gold hunting specifically, so I might be completely wrong in my assumption. But, when you have a good idea of where the potential nugget is, within a few inches in front of you, and it might just be a piece of trash at the same time... Isn't that what pinpointers are made for??

hey Rick have you used 6000 there before? I am thinking of either 6000 or Axiom//

Excellent, nice videos and very informative, I think Garrett is on a winner with the Axiom.
Thanks for your comment! We are so excited about the Axiom!
Great video, thank you man.
Good info. I need to get an Axion machine. Thanks…..
Can't wait to get our axiom! In the top 3 list at kellyco😎🤞
Can't wait to see it on your channel. Great work guys👍👌🇦🇺
@@adhawk5632 thank you! It hasn't come yet but we got a loaner gpx 6000 for use in nugget country in a couple weeks my friend!
Careful.... you might end up with 2 favourite new detectors!!!😉👍👌🇦🇺

hello l from zambia i got the new garrett metal detector axiom, i need help on how to use it thanks.
Super detector. Greetings from Poland 👍
Think I'll stick with my infinium LS although this looks like a good machine.
What if the big rock you had in your hand that you threw out in the last find was really gold
Hi I wonder how Axiom works in west AU with very high mineralization?

@@rickseifert5139 I thought 6000 is very similar to axiom in terms of performance by reviews

@@Garrett_metaldetectors Thanks you. The price in AU is very similiar to GPX 6000, Pain
Nope, go faster than you would think can work and 4" above the ground. The new detectors are sensitive enough to handle it.
You need a handheld pinpointer my man. This was painful to watch.
Was just about to comment the same thing!
Coin and relic hunting is totally different than gold nugget detecting. And a pinpointer messes with the PI detector.

@@MoreEffinCowbell just stick to what you know.
@@robmart5920 ...right. 😉👍
Dig everything when hunting gold. Don't listen to him about sounds
I agree mate .
yeah he even said, "sometimes the low tones can be a huge nugget, but I prefer high tones." 😂
