23 for drawing, 25 for injecting
pain free

Agreed except I use a 25 for both, I heat my AAS pretty well before drawing and it does not take all that long.

Have you guys ever injected with 23ga? That's all I can get my hands on right now

**Lemonada8** · 11-26-2011, 12:51 AM

u can get them off the internet many sites available.. and no i never injected 23g...

**GymRat96744** · 11-26-2011, 12:57 AM

Never did order pins online.

23 works fine, that's what I use. I use a 22 to pull and sometimes inject as well. Your gear also makes a difference, if its colder or you have thicker oil it will take a while in a 25 g. But as the guys above mentioned you can heat the oil or even cut it with B12, give it a good shake and you are GTG.

You can get them anywhere bro, even amazon. 22's are kinda rough if you gotta inject ed or eod. I personally stick with 25's for all injections.

I prefer 23 for oil based,they are pretty much painless.I have had problems with 25 ga clogging with some of my water based stuff,but they work ok for oil based.My preference is 23 ga for everything.

@ sizzlechest. What is it you mean? I inject my B12 separate from my Test. Can I do them at the same time? I do 1ml of each and have a 3ml siring.

**Nuzzi** · 11-26-2011, 11:50 AM

ive used 23 and 25, youll live with 23ga but try to get 25ga, much better, less pain and bleeding. and yeah you can get pins all over the internet, and they usually ship quick.

I was wondering the same thing.

I have done oil based and water based stuff in the same syringe before,you dont really mix them together they stay seperate in the syringe.Put the thinnest stuff in last so you inject it first,it will be easy to inject the thin stuff then get harder when you hit the thicker stuff. Never had an issue doing it.

Definitely 25g nice and easy.

I like 23g or even 25g when I'm patient.

Water and oil don't mix but there is a trick.
1)Pull your oil , lets say 1-2 ml, now pull the rest full with b12.
2) Cap the needle and pull another 1/2 cc of air. ( your syringe might be 3ml put you can pull a little more in)
3) now change the needle for a new sharp one,
4) shake the syringe vigorously. the mixture should be all red and mixed, looks like salad dressing. The oil and water are suspended in small particle.
5) eject extra air from the syringe and shoot asap.

YOU need to work fast as the longer you wait the oil and water are going to start separating. It goes though like butter!! I'll take pics next time I shoot.
