    Needle size?

    My supplier accidentally sent me 1" 23ga needle instead of the 1.5" 21ga. I ordered. Would anyone have an objection to the idea of using a 1" 23ga needle in the glute? It took forever to draw oil based out of, but I eventually got it. Anyone see a problem with this? I am no doctor.

    thnx!

    I inch 23g pin. That's exactly what I used and I hit glutes, thighs and delts...and Choice...you hit the nail on the head when you said it takes a long time to draw an oil based roid into a 23g pin. It's like trying to drink one of those friggin shakes at Mc Donalds.

    I hate those god damn shakes! Cool, I am used to injecting with cannons, and those pussy needles didn't seem like they would cut it. I do have 40 of them, might as well use them.

    thanks dude

    Oh yeah...it's slow coming out of the syrnge as well. For my next cycle (sust250+deca ) I'll use a 21g or 22g 1.5".

    my question is am i losing any effectiveness medically using a 1" needle in my glute. mind you, i am 6'2" 180lbs at 5%, so it doesn't have to travel very far to hit muscle

    1"

    at 5% 1" will hit the muscle no problem. 1" 23G in nice because casue less scar tissue, but best all round size is probably 22G 1.5" works for everything but bi's and tri's

    Al: Once I had a whole cycle with only 20ga 2", I could actually see sunlight through the needle hole. 23ga feel much nicer!
