    drawing up needle size?

    hey guys,

    just got my first vial here with me, not planning on starting for another 2 weeks.

    i know to use a 20 or 21 guage needle for drawing, but i cant work out what length on needle to use, can you give me an idea?

    im leaning to 1.5 inch but whats the recommendation?

    thanks a lot

    Always inject in the glutes with 1.5 used to use 1 inch in thighs but found the injections painfull. With a vial you just stick the needle in half a centimetre an turn the whole lot upside down and draw it that way

    Hey rixyroids which is your gear? man you don't need to shot
    the gear with pencil thickness needles if you have a watery solution
    you can go OK with 27 or even 29G, only Winny you should use 25G
    at least! I am using 25G 1" for all the oily solution and goes just fine
    in the quads, glutes, biceps, triceps, whatever! The lenght of the
    needle to suck up the gear from the vial is not important just the
    thickness would play a role here since you can turn the vial upside
    down if your needle doesn't reach the bottom. The thinner the painless
    will be the shots and of course the smaller will be the chances of scar
    tissues, IMO.

    hey seajackel

    im using test enanthate , just wondering bout this coz iv never used a vial before.

    so would you recommend using maybe a 25 or 27 guage or something similar to inject? and only 1"?? just wanted to make sure it was in the muscle ok!!

    and is it difficult to draw from a vial?? could i use a 25 guage 1" to draw from the vial then replace that with a new 25 guage 1" needle to inject, or should i use a larger needle to draw from the vial?

    thanks

    I use a 25g 1" to inject.

    I use a 21-23 to draw. It can be any length to draw with.

    If your going to use 1.5 for thigh just don't go all of the way in.. I just like 1" because you can burry it in..LOL

    Good luck with the cycle bro..
