Needle size??
« on: March 19, 2008, 03:50:19 PM »
I currently use a 25 gauge for 75 mg winny and a 23 gauge for 500 mg test.   Are all 25 gauge 1/2 inch and 23 gauge 1 inch?  How do you decipher what type of needle to use?

You can get 25guages in 1-1.5" just depends on what you ordered.  You use the needle that's most comfortable to you and that is long enough to get past the fat into your muscle.

you're running Winstrol through a 25 gauge needle? Winny is water based isn't it? doesn't seem like the crystals would pass through a needle that small, oil based products are best with a 22 or 23 gauge and the length of the needle should be based on how thick the muscle you're putting it in is, if it's a typical glute inj. use a 1 and a half but if you're going into the delt, bicep or calf use a 1 inch.

I've found a 23 guage is a pretty good all around needle to use.

Say you've got a 10ml sachet. You'll use a large syringe with an 18 guage needle & then draw all the liquid out. You'd then put it into a multidose vial & use accordingly.

I wish someone would have told me this a few years ago when I did it.  I would stick the needle in and push hard as hell, nothing would come out.  I tried three times and couldn't get the shit out.  I ended up giving the winny away and not using it.

yep, it's always best to just endure the pain for 20 seconds or so and run 2-3cc's of water based product through a 20 or 21 gauge, it passes through so much quicker than with a small needle.
