What size nail does one use to dispatch a raccoon? An 8d finish nail? 16d common? Galvanized or steel?

Assuming no air compressor in the truck, to power the nail gun, I’d suspect he used a Paslode framing nailer, which can fure a maximum 3.5” nail, available in galvanized, steel, ringshank or plain shank. For my part, under 7 yards, the 3” steel ringshank would be the projectile of choice...

And, don’t forget some grits as a side dish...
