Myself and two of my buddies as well as three other guys that I don't really know that well at the gym, all use the same needle to draw AND shoot. We have been using the same needle for 3 years now. Every Friday night we get together and sharpen it.

Think about it. You put that needle in the juice, and take it out so it's also exposed to organisms in the air. Then they're all over the needle day in and day out. You don't think something nasty is gonna be on that needle? So then some lifeform is growing on the needle and gets drawn into the syringe. Next time you inject you just put some foreign organism in your body and get an infection.
Hate to break this to you bro but, uh, alcohol doesn't sterilize. Throw some bleach in there & you may be a bit safer but, christ, come on, 100 18g tips are only like 10 bucks, why chance that shit?
So you should use a separate 18g to draw up the flood everytime and a separate 23g or so needle to stick everytime. Two needles. I always used new needle to stick me but not to draw out the oil. I thought I was being safe...
For even greater savings, whittle bamboo shoots at an angle and use em with a funnel. It's like an oil change, only in your ass. Need a smaller gauge? Just find a sapling...
I get my pins and order extra 18 gauge pin points only....like .08 cents a piece...get a good fast draw, and you don't dull your 25 gauge in the stopper.....nice painless injection everytime.
