Using small metal detector to find lost brass
Has anybody used one of the small one handed metal detectors to find lost brass? And does it work on brass in grass?
I am referring to the things they use on us at airports etc, on-line price $30 or so.
I know we probably won't save enough brass to pay for a detector, but the annoyance of losing fire formed brass can be worth avoiding, and the detector might also be useful for other stuff.
I am referring to brass loss in the course of hunting, notably for multi-shot encounters. Being better able to find brass afterwards might allow a less inhibited approach to mob opportunities (pigs).
I have also been playing with shell catchers, but so far not satisfied.
