Milwaukee M18 FUEL 21-Degree Framing Nailer vs Bostitch F33PT Framing Nailer
Buy the Milwaukee M18 FUEL if you frame in places without power or air, or want to work off the same M18 batteries as your other tools. Buy the Bostitch F33PT if you have a compressor and want the lightest, fastest-reloading nailer for the money. The Bostitch is lighter (8 lbs vs 10 lbs) and holds 80 nails to Milwaukee's 51, and it also drives metal connector nails. The Milwaukee matches pneumatic driving power without a hose, but it needs a battery you may not own and its 5.0Ah pack runs about 700 nails per charge. Owners rate the Milwaukee highly (4.6 from 2,741 ratings) and praise its power; the Bostitch is a proven pro-grade pneumatic with a long track record.
- Choose the Milwaukee M18 FUEL if you want cordless framing power on the M18 battery platform and no compressor or hose.
- Choose the Bostitch F33PT if you already run air, want a lighter nailer with a bigger magazine, and need metal connector nailing too.
