ideal pin size?

hey i was reading on steroid.com and it says 22g 1.5 inches is ideal,, im taking test c and am using 22 and 1.5 but ive heard 23 or 25 g as well with 1.5 pins... but with a 23 or 25 wont it take longer to inject? what about scar tissue? whats a good pin to use for glute and thigh injects with test c or e, and whats a good pin for glutes and thighs and biceps with test p? im not worried bout the pain cuz a 22g 1.5 works fine but im worried bout scar tissue and not going in deep enough,can u use a 1inch for glute and thighs?

yeah but I use 1 1/2 inch for glutes. You can use 22g smallest imo cuz it gets harder to push the oil the smaller you go. I use a 21G.

I use 25 guage for everything. 1.5 for the ass and 1 inch for everything else: tris, bis, chest, delts,quads.

I use 23g 1" for my shoulders, ass, and quads...25g 5/8" for my tri's...Been using these sizes for 5 yrs and countless cycles and never had a problem...

oh so its better if it goes in slower? i thought the longer it takes the more chance for soreness, if thats the case the a 25 is fine?

i use a 25g 1 inch for everything bis, tris, delts, thighs, even glutes... but I dont have much fat back there and 1 inch is plenty deep enough for me

no way the only way i get sore is if i inject too fast, or if i jiggle the pin a little while its in, i use a 25g 5/8" for chest and tris and a 25g 1" for shoulders and quads and for the ass i use a 23g 1.5", i dont use these gauges becuz im afraid of injecting pain, but it forces me to inject slower which alleviates the after injection pain atleast for me, also it only seems logical that the smaller pins leave less scar tissue do to the smaller circumference of the hole they create

I notice with the 25 if your doing anything over 1 cc it takes forever!
