needle size

[princeton]

any one use 20 gauge needles? What about 3/4 also? Oh and does the size of the syringe matter

Syringe size don't really matter...just depends on what you can get and easily manage in your hand. I use 3cc syringe. I use 18's and 20's to draw from the amp or bottle and I shoot with a 1 1/4" 25g on all substances other than HCG. I use a 29gX1/2" slin pin for that and inject sub-Q.

i use 20g to draw, if you plan on injecting with a 20g, you have big hairy balls.

I only inject with 25g now, i dont see any point in making holes in me bigger than that. If the oil is thick, load the syringe, then run it under hot water for 60 seconds, and it will shoot easy

how much does the length matter??

depends on how lean you are bro. there is a reason they call it intramuscular. If you can get it in the muscle with a shorter pin, by all means do so if that makes you feel better. Just make sure it is smack in the middle of the muscle and it'll be all good.

I always use a 1" just to be sure

25ga for test and other oil? i always thought that was too small
(although i have never tried it) I normally use 23ga, but you think i can shoot Test Ethanate with 25ga? if so ill give it a try.
as for length, i use 1" for delts and quads, 1.5" for glutes. let me know.
One more question, when i order needles, it seems like i have to order about 20 at once. How do i get just one 18ga to draw oil based?
Thanks

New needle every time, even to draw. Sterility!
