Help me choose SYRINGE volume

[tintinnabulatio]

I'm about to order alcohol pads/needles/syringes online, needles i know i need to order 1.5" 23G, but i was wondering if there are advantages/disadvantages regarding syringe volume.

I need to inject 0.6-0.7ml test-E. Should i go with a 2ml syringe?
And for HCG, basic insulin syringe+needle, 1ml ?

Thanks!

1 ml syringe is the easiest.
if you are not injecting more then 1 ml then get 1 ml

I like 1" 25g for everything but glutes
glutes 1 1/2" 25g


21G for drawing

IMO you dont need a 1.5" needle. I only use a 1". And a 2 or 3cc syringe will be fine. I use a 1", 25g, 3cc for every single bodypart. No real need to go deeper than that. But as Brewster stated, IF youre not injecting more than 1cc, then just get a 1cc.

yup.

Thanks guys, i'll be pinning glutes only. I'm lean so maybe i don't need a 1 1/2" indeed. Should i purchase 1 1/4" for glutes then?

if your still 155lbs you could probably inject with a thumbtac and hit muscle

1" is fine.. i injected 3.5ml into glutes with 1" and had very little if any leakage.. so 1" will be sufficient.. although 1.5" is often recomended, out of personal experience i have found no need for the extra half inch

1" is all you need

3.5ml?? What were you injecting and how often if you don't mind me asking?

^^^^^I agree here. I only use one inch 25ga pins. You also should rotate injection sites. Quads are the easiest, then delts, then glutes. Some guys hit many more spots than that. The more spots hit the less buildup up of scar tissue.
