Just curious on the needle gauge and length you all use and do you use a different sizes for each area?

For me when injecting in my quad I use 25G 5/8" which is perfect for me. Not too long...

For glute I use 22G 1".

(by the way, I'm 20/F on a Deca cycle)

27g 1 1/2" ping. When you have been doing it for awhile you will under stand. The bigger gauge you use when you start off the more scar tissue you are going to get. Start smaller and when the scar tissue becomes to much for the smaller gauges then start moving up.

18G to draw
25G to shoot
but I am looking into using 27G whem I run out of the 25's

thanks aaheep, I didn't realize that 27's would work on sustenon.

you don't need a 1 1/2" pin .if you only have 1" just push in harder you will get to the same location deep in the muscle.

I use 18g 1'1/2" in the glutes. Don't do shoulders or quads. I could'nt be bothered trying to push oil through 23g upwards. I used to use 21g 1'1/2" in the glutes but don't anymore.

I dont know how you guys use a 27g for oil injections(the ones that do). Ive done it a few times with a 25g, it takes 1 full minute of pushing hard as you can with your fingers to get that shit out.
I cant imagine it would even pass through a 27g.

Omegalos, NO SHIT! I tried injecting EQ thru a 25 gauge ONCE. I then proceeded to exchange all the 25's I'd just bought for tried and true 22. Everything with a 22g 1 1/2 for me. You bros using the 5/8 pins for glutes? That's barely more than 1/2 an inch! That's like an insulin pin if it's 27 g!

Omegalos, you can heat the roid and then it will pass easier. You can get Primo through an insulin needle put it will demand a lot of force. But don't shoot more then 2 cc at a time. So heating and a 27 guage is worth the try.
I myself use a 25

For me 21g in the glutes and 25g in the quads. I prefer using 21g though, I find some gear seems to thick for a thinner 25g (it goes through ok, but very very slowly).
