Did you ever then have trouble with sand particles getting stuck in the pin point spray holes ? Or is that not a problem ?

I haven't noticed a problem. I keep several spare nozzles, but I think I have only replaced about 5 to 8 nozzles in the past 6 years due to clogging.
Note that there is a non-adjustable nozzle with 2 pin point holes 180 degrees apart for watering a linear row of plants. It is a Hunter Model 5-CST-B, which I once ordered for a neighbor, but I have never needed to replace one in my yard. If you ever need one, the only place I could find it was at sprinklerwarehouse.com. ACE Hardware and Amazon did not carry it.
