Back in the Day
Paying my way through college, I worked as a Framer. We didn't use nail guns and when laying pressure treated 2x8 T&G subfloors we used the heaviest Vaughan hammer we could handle. Usually a 27oz.

Over time I found I could drive 16 penny nails pretty well by setting it with one tap and then driving it home with a single blow.

I distinctly remember the feel as not "uncocking" before impact.
