    Needle Size?

    Hey Just trying to find some info on what size needles I should be using. Right now I have just started a cycle of Test E, Deca , and Tren E. I have been taking shots in my thigh and shoulders. I have been drawing out of the vials with a 23 gauge and been injecting with a 25 gauage 1.5inch needle. Been going in all the way with the thigh shots and only about an inch in the shoulder. To get the most out of my gear should I bump my injection needle size up to a 23 gauge or does it not matter. I am afraid some gear is not making it total out of the needle. Thanks for help in advance!

    no you dont need to go to a bigger needle and you dont need to be running tren e and deca imo, two 19nors going to shut you down hard

    I am 5'10" 220lbs. 11%bf and I have taken 4 to 5 cycles one including Deca and another including Tren . I have also ran Anadrol , dbol , EQ, winstrol , and most types of test. I know that tren shuts you down hard but I love the results and I am running a Bulker for winter so figure I would through Deca in to. I know when taken together it will shut me down hard I know I can handle it. Only running tren for 12 weeks full cycle 15 weeks. I know the results are awsome as long as you put the work in.

    draw with 21g shoot 23g 1.5 glutes-1inch quads
    The higher the mg/ml the thicker the juice is...making it harder to push through the needle. Slow is good but you don't want to have to force it causing too much movement=bad pip
    my 2 cents on it

    I draw with 18g and use 23g x 1" for all shots. If you choose to re-butt my choice of needle size for shooting...please note that I could care less what you use!
