    Questions regarding syringes?

    First off for glute shots I've read that a 23g x1.5 needle is best. Is this what most recommend? What size syringes do people use for 250mg of Test E? Do you use syringe filters as well? Any info is greatly appreciated.

    all you need is a normal average 3ml syringe, no filters 23g 1.5 inch is fine for the glutes. 25g 1 inch for quads , delts

    If your test is 250mgs/ml, then thats only ONE ML in the sryinge

    The best gauge is 23-25G usually for injecting. The length of the pin varies depending on where you are injecting. Most places only need 1" pins where as the glute is usually best with a 1.5" pin. I have never used syringe filters myself though some swear by them.

    I personally think anything smaller than 23ga takes too long with thick oils. 22-23gauge IMO are perfect 1.5" for Glute 1" for everything else

    I remember those days, even 18g. That is one of the main reasons I never did it in my younger days. LOL

    I think unkless you are very lean and have striations on your glute muscles, it is just safer to use 1.5" it takes all the guessing out about going deep enough. just my opinion though! 1" might be more than enough but if you are leaving a 1/4" of the needle showing like is recommended, then I will say that 3/4" would for sure be too short for the glute!

    I use 20 x 1 1/2 pins for glutes, and I don't feel anything.
    Weird, but that's the deal.Only feel some pressure of the oil itself.I guess I'm one lucky bro, in that respect.

    YES! I can't feel any difference. I keep 20g/23g/25g, on hand all the time.

    usually use 22g 1.5" for glutes and 25g 1" for everything else. 18g 1.5" for drawing from amps and 20g 1.5" for drawing from vials.
