Anyone ever install Log Siding?

I am installing log siding on the house I am building. I started on the upper level so any blems in the learning process can't be seen once I am done.

Here is question:

I am using hot dipped galvanized 3 1/4" pins - I miss at least one nail on every board and mark up the siding with my hammer. I am setting the nails with a nail set. I went out an bought a Hitachi NV65AH siding nailer to speed things up and get a better finish. I can't seem to find suitable siding nails for it (without heads). Any ideas on where I can get these?
