    Guys, you should all know by now that you really do not need anything bigger than a 25 G for any site other than the glutes.

    I ONLY use 25 G, 1 " pins for my spot injections. No matter what I am shooting through it, 25 G works just fine.

    I have shot fina, sust, eq, and a mixture of all three through a 25 G pin.

    The good thing about the smaller pin in the sites is that you cannot inject fast, so the gear does not get in to quick.
