I've been using a 23 gauge by 3/4 long needle for my cycle of prop. Is that to shot of a needle or does it not make a difference? I see a lot of people use a 1 inch or inch and a half.

Depends on where you are injecting
I use a 25g 1" for all injections but I do not inject glutes (too difficult to reach)
I do glutes.
Glutes, with 1.5" for me.
glutes are too hard for you to reach? with a 1.5inch pin there should be no problem
So should I get a bigger needle or is 3/4 long enough?
3/4 seems pretty short, guess it really just depends how lean you are. You want to make sure you get it into the muscle. 1 inch would prob be better but like i said depends on how lean you are
Glute injections: 23-gauge 1.5-inch long needles.
Thigh injections: 25-gauge 1-inch long needles.
Deltoid injections: 25-gauge 1-inch long needles.
Bro if its workin dont fix it.
i just buy 25g 1.5 in and use them for all injections everywhere. if i need it shorter i dont have to go in all the way. plus 25g develop less scar tissue in my experience than even 23's and you dont have to bother switching pins or ordering different sizes. i do recommend ordering like 21 g's for draw needles though sometimes it takes a while to draw with a 25 vs. 21g.
You need an 1" min and thats for delts,,biceps,,thighs. For glutes you need 1.5"
I use an 18 gauge cannon and just fire that puppy right into the quads....kidding No I use an 18g to draw from and a 23 1-1/2 inch to inject in the quads. I guess it's what ever works for you and your comfortable with as long as you get it deep enough into the muscle so it doesnt seep back out. Some use the Z-Track method, I don't.
**** is right dude 1.5 for glutes 1 for deltoid etc... no more than 3 cc in any muscle no more than 2cc in deltoid oil based aas r a pain to drw frm small gauges like 25...21 and below is the way to go
25g 5/8" delt
23g 1.5" glute
