    25's do work they just take forever to get the oil out of the vial and to pump in the muscle

    you can heat the oil to make it easier to draw, or draw with a 18g and shoot with a 25, or just use a 22 or 23g

    the idea ist to draw with an 18g or 19g which will take about 2 seconds then change the pin to whatever you want. 25G is fine for injecting, I personally use 23g but thats just me

    Yeah im using 25g right now. as we speak. but i do prefer 27 or 29 gauge if i can get them. I use ETHYL OLEATE though. 25g is a whole world of difference compared to 21 or 22g. heheh, you guys are all suckas.

    i use 20g to draw and 25g to shoot... perfect... it only takes about 10 sec.... but i have home brew with grapeseed oil....

    it's just a little needle. use the 23g. i used 25g for a while but got sick of waiting 5 minutes for an injection to finish. I want to be in and out. 23g is where it's at. 30 seconds if i go super slow and i'm done.

    22 or 23 ... 25 is to small and takes to much time...

    I have only ever used 22g and it has never hurt and usually goes pretty quick

    ya, i don't know how someone pushes through a 25g in 10 seconds. I don't see that possible with test enanthate.

    I can do it in about 20 seconds but 23G is definitely faster but for the extra time it takes and almost not feeling the pin at all I prefer 25G

    I draw with a 22 and inject with a 25...I tried 23's to inject...25's way better...I inject everyday, it makes a difference.

    hmm....i might try to dissolve my stuff in a lighter oil then. what oils are being used for these 25g needles?

    It's easier to push something thru a needle than pull...nothing special about the oil. I can draw with a 22 pretty quick, the only reason I don't use something bigger to draw than 22 is because I use 100ml multi dose vials. The top gets to be swiss cheese after awhile if you're using a big needle.

    ya, because drawing causes a vacuum but injecting is trying to compress a fluid that doesn't compress. Still takes a while. I think it does have something to do with the viscosity of the oil. I've done plenty of injections in my time. I would say in the double digits every day i'm at the clinic. I'm quite familiar with them.

    yeah, you're right thinner oil will flow quicker/through a smaller gauge no doubt...the oil I use is just regular cotton-seed oil though.
