Hi there, I am looking for a more powerful cordless for site work. I have a matika combi but it is like a toffee hammer and looking for something more substantial but not too over the top.

I have a corded hammer if i need to core drill.

Thanks in advance
 
What size of holes are you trying to drill?

Just googled the type of drill you have.

Get something that takes SDS bits - I'm sure Makita must have something available
