Anybody know of a framing nailer that will actually sink 16d nails when nailing together LVLs? I use a Senco SN 65 and a Bostitch N80 coil nailer and neither one will do it. I’m tired of pounding in the last half inch by hand. I have also noticed that the Versalams are a little softer than the Macmillans, but I have to special order the versalams while my local supplier keeps the other in stock.. At 120psi, the Senco will sink 12s at the top of the cycle( in the Vlams) and then leave the heads out as the pressure drops. There has to be something out there!
