I need to attach a couple of 2X4's to a cement wall in the basement and

planning to buy the HD22 Ramset (hammer driven 22 cal. single shot , the

dollar cheapo) and am very confused as to which load to use to drive the
2
1/2'' pins ...Yellow,brown or green????? The 2X4's will only be
supporting a
2 1/2 inch drain pipe for washer over to the septic line if that makes a
difference....Thanks for any help...


Yellow is typically good. If you just rent a good Hilti nailgun for the
day (DX36M is nice), you get the advantages of a trigger gun, adjustable
pressure so you can dial in the proper drive level, and quieter
operation.


Yellow it is...Thanks everyone......If I wasn't laid off right now I could
just bring one home from work...I work for a drywall co. and we have several
Hiltis for the steele framers...I tape so I don't use them as you can
probably tell.......LOL....
