Presupps. have to think they're right to begin with and will openly admit they cannot be wrong. I doubt Plantinga would go that far. William Lane Craig has (by arguing from religious experience equally automatic, indisputable proof), but I would expect Plantinga to be a cut above that.
Maybe I'm just wrong.
Yes, I have trouble pinning down exactly what he means by the term Reformed epistemology. At times it seems evidential in nature and other times seems presuppositional. I do know that his critique of presuppostionalism was based completely upon a mischaracterization of their position, so it appears that at times Plantinga can be a bit sloppy (note: his critique of presuppositionalism was based upon an interviewer’s question so I do not believe the mischaracterization was intentional but was rather based upon a lack of understanding).
