Hi guys,
I'll be doing my first cycle at month's end hopefully if things go right and have been reading a mixed bag of pins to use. I've read 22ga 1inch and I've read 23ga 1.5inch for glute shots. I'm only doing weekly glute shots.
which do you guys prefer?
thanks

18 g to withdraw
25g 1" for all injects...if you need to use 1.5" you are way too fat!

At the start I used 25 1.5" but then I switched over to 22 1" and was much happier. The 25s take a long ass time to inject with and I find it uncomfortable. Honestly buy a few of each and try em yourself personal preferance is gonna be different with everyone I mean they all get the job done so find out what you like and stick to it.

I use 23-1 to draw, 25g 1 inch to inject. I'm about 2.5 weeks into my first cycle, only done delts so far.
Can't even feel the pin going in with a 25.
Make sure your sitting down the first time you pin lol.
Best of luck man.
I use 22g 1.5"

Same, or 21.

quads and delts I use 25g 1" and I use 22g 1" for glutes
draw wit a 21ga 1" and pin with a 25ga 1".......no need for 1.5 unless you got some junk in yer trunk.....i dont see how you guys use a 21-23 to inject all the time....try using a heavy gauge when injecting test suspn. twice a day.....you'll def. want to switch to a 25.....

I use a 20g 1.5" to draw with. I only started using 22g for my glute shots recently. up till now I had only used my glutes a handful of times.

thanks for the replies guys, I'll try 22's and 23's 1 inch to pin and 18's to draw. I'll try one of each, whichever hurts less, I'll go with it.
I used a 25ga 5/8" to do a b12 injection to get a feel for the act, and it wasn't that bad although I did run an ice cube over the area before disinfecting!
Keep in mind that if your gear is 100% eo based, it'll run like water in a 22g. too thin for 22 imo

Loving the 23 gauge- 1", awesome on the delts. Terumo are way better than the BD.

Been drawing with 21`s and injecting with 22`s, 1 1/2 length for glute shots. I just started using the 22`s with eo based gear, and the shots have been very easy with absolutely no pain. Will try a 23 gauge mabye next.
