    Well, gauge is for needle, not syringe. In any event, opinions differ, and it depends on where you are injecting. I use 5/8 inch on Delts for instance, though most prefer 1 inch there. Glutes, 1.5 inch is fine. Legs, a lot of people go 1 inch. etc. etc.

    I'd use a 20g 1.5-inch filter needle to draw and a 25g 1.5-inch needle to inject the glutes.

    Gauge (like a shotgun) has to do with how thick the needle is. The 1.5" is the length. I draw with a 21 g then inject with a 23 g. It doesn't have to go in fast, in fact the slower the better.

    +1 on that. Same thing 21 to draw 23 to inject.

    23 I have found is a decent gauge to pin with. I know some who go smaller and I have tried it, but some gear its just a pain with such a small pin. If your gears thin enough then it works. But 99% of time I use a 23 gauge to pin.

    I don`t see the point of using 22G for injections. 25G is basically all I ever use now, why make extra scar tissue by using a bigger pin?

    I use 23g x 1 1/2", mostly 3cc gluts and I warm up my juice to get it to flow better.

    I used to use an 18 g to draw, but then I started using 20 ml vials and it was chewing up the stopper to the point where it was leaking oil. Not much, but I thought if oil can get out, what could get in...
