    what are you pinning. If you can get it to flow through and its deep enough it's fine. I use 38's for quads

    Test E 250 if that makes a difference
    And holy crap 38s must be microscopic

    Haha ok that makes sense, still nervous to pin for the first time. A bit afraid of needles. I have a friend who's a medic who is gonna help me out though.

    Just want to chime in and say 18 is probably a bit big to draw... I think it will chew up the top pretty good. I draw with 23 or 21 at the most and inject with 25. Just my thoughts

    drawing with an 18 is fine. I would get frustrated drawing with a 23. I usually draw with a 20-21 but really you are only going to draw out of the vial probably 10 times

    LOL.... For some weird reason that sentence made me actually laugh out loud.... I just imagined you sitting there drawing with a 23 "Mother fvcker... this is bullsh|t... taking too long.... idiot recommended a 23.... what an asshole" LOL.... I needed a good laugh this morning.

    trust me I have done it before and yes that's about how it goes. 23 is fine to pin with but I like to draw a lot faster

    LMAO... Nice analogy! I draw w/a 23g but the 1" flows much better than the 1.5"(longer pin)?.... Just thought I'd chime in and that was a good laugh! I was just about to head to the vent thread! Lol

    I Only do for glutes(and that's if I'm out of 1") but I'll still use 1" on everything else(even if I can do 5/8) but just like it a lil deeper(just a preference thing)...

    But yes ouch for 1.5 everywhere(I couldn't imagine on quads being as lean as you are)

    no I use half inch pins for quads and it's deep enough for 1cc. Never had an issue

    I always draw with 18 pin with 25.

    Drew 70ml out of a 100ml jug with an 18g until I decided it was time to transfer. Wasn't even that bad....was getting a drop or two leaking out at the time.no debris either

    If only TRT amounts I use a 27 ga 1/2" anywhere. Any kind of volume (cycle) and I go with a 25 ga 1".

    I must be lucky cause I get it to push through a 28 gauge insulin pin no problem but that's pinning quads were I can hold the pin with both hands and put a lot of force into pushing on the plunger

    Ha, yeah that could be. I dont like to push that hard, I'm afraid I might break of the needle being so small.

    Breaking the needle always reminds me of the 1st time I used a vanishpoint syringe. Scared the Sh*t out of me. I though the pin had broke and was trying to figure out how I was going to get it out when finally I figured out what happened. Ive read a couple other post from people doing the same thing. lol

    Haha it would take a lot to break that off and even if it did it would work its way out on its own
