Stick nailer?
Easiest might be to take it to a rental yard and see what they have. They'll have open boxes, lot cheaper than buying a box to find out.

If your nailer is one of the two on that maze nail link, when you go to the lumberyard, ask for nails for a NR83A. The NR83A is one of the most popular framers out there and everybody will know the nails for it. The nails are 20 or 22 degree round head nails that are collated with plastic.

should say 22 deg on the package

need more info here, like a model number, is it a clipped head or full head? The older c-man clipped nailers were 28 degree nails, paper collated.
