Where does the recommendation for 75mm nails come from?

General recommendation: nail length 3 times the material's thickness.

Coiled panel nails 47mm so they don't go through and stay as solid as a rock.

Given that you have material behind to attach the subject to. Now you only have 28mm, so your general recommendation becomes somewhat toothless when trying to apply it for this.

Yes, a better way to phrase the question would have been: Do I need to switch to a thicker sparse to be able to attach my 22 mm råspont?

No, I have used 28mm spaced tongue and groove and I'm installing paneling that is 15mm. When I use 50mm nails, most of them don't go through, except for a few that have gone through. I nail at maybe a 55-45 degree angle with the nail gun in the groove.

No. Instead, switch to shorter nails. You don't need 75 mm nails for the boards to stay in place.

Buy fine-sawn slat instead. You get a similar impression but with more consistent quality, and you can reduce the fasteners' dimensions. The slat measures 15 mm.
