framing nailers- clipped head vs. full

So I have a fairly large framing project coming up and I want to buy a air framing nailer . Looks like basically looking at clipped head nails vs. full head nails regardless of the brand of air nailer . So what are the pro's and con's of both ? It would seem that the full head would be stronger just based on surface area . What about the availability of the nails ?
This is going to be for the most part a one time use as I am going to be framing up the pole barn/man cave I had installed a few weeks ago . So I am probably going to utilize a Harbor Freight 25 % off coupon on the 4th of July that I received in the mail . Both styles of nailer are $79.99 before the coupon .
