    Why the hell haven't been using 25g pins all along?

    I just recently ordered some new pins for my current cycle and I got 25g this time instead of 22 or 23 which is what I have always used...

    I literally couldn't feel anything..

    lol obviously man.. injecting with 22 / 23g is like injecting with a harpoon.

    25g is where it's at.

    Imagine ppl who use 18g hey? ruthless.

    A good ugl uses good oils. If it aint goin through a 25g , then it's time to change your lab.

    Dude, I almost spit my hamburger onto the screen!! Isn't it alot harder to push the plunger down on a 25G? I have a hard enough time with the 23g's.

    I'm using 25g pins also..... really..... no pain LOL. i didn't mind 23g's..... but tried the 25's and i literally didn't feel it lol.

    The test is a little harder to pass through it but not to the point that it's not worth it. I sometimes warm the test up in hot (not scalding) water..... passes through easier.

    Had a buddy who was so nervous on his very first injection. Told him I would help but he did it on his own, drew with an 18g and forgot to swap to the 25's. Thank god he swabbed during each step. Funny shite though, said it wasent as bad as he thought it would be but the blood made a mess.

    Currently use 23g 1.5". Next order is going to be 24-25g @ 1". 23g 1.5" don't hurt at all, but anything to make it easier is cool with me. 1.5" needle cures my paranoia of not going deep enough.

    i used a 20G on my first injection... it really doesnt feel much different then the 23G ones im using now... i have a hard time loading the gear into the 23G as it is, i usually load with 20G then switch pins... i cant imagine how hard itd be to get gear out (or IN for that matter) with a 25G

    me too,
    i also have a buddy who used 18g needles for his first time/first cycle, he got the gear/syringes all in a package together from a guy at the gym so he didnt know any better

    also heating up the gear when using the 25g makes the gear inject a lot easier

    hahaha and everyone gave me a bad time for using 25g a while back but now everyone is jumping on board....
    Ive been using 25g all along. Yes it takes longer to inject which is better because you dont end up with lumps or sore spots.
