Either choice you make, using 16d framing nails ensures a solid structure that meets local building codes. A 4-inch, 20d nail is better for 2×6 lumber but could cause smaller 2×4 lumber to split. Use a 3-inch, 10d nail in 2×4 framing, and you won’t get less strength and be structurally inadequate.

Can you put Brad nails in a finish nailer?
