Score: 85/100
Ryobi ONE+ P326
Score: 72/100Rankings

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Gen II 18-Gauge Brad Nailer is a professional-grade cordless tool designed for light-duty trim work with zero ramp-up time. Its main limitation is the lack of structural nailing capability and the requirement to purchase batteries separately. It is best suited for professional carpenters already invested in the M18 ecosystem.

The Ryobi ONE+ 18V AirStrike 16-Gauge Cordless Finish Nailer (P326) is a battery-powered tool designed for trim work and finish carpentry that utilizes proprietary AirStrike Technology to eliminate the need for air compressors or hoses. It features a significantly smaller nose than its predecessor, allowing access to tight spaces, and offers up to 1,000 nails per charge on the ONE+ platform. While reliable, it lacks the speed and efficiency of newer brushless models.
