Can a framing nailer be used to toe-nail wall studs without
overdriving the nails or splitting the studs?

KC, yes framing nailers make wonderful toe-nailers especially if, like me,
you aren't a good toe nailer. After a while you will figure out exactly
where to hold your gun and at what angle to get a perfect toe nail. I've
never split a stud with a nailer. However, it is very easy to split a stud
with repeated blows of a hammer. \
