I draw with 18-20 use 22's to pin, you guys are using 27? how the hell you getting high mg oils through those, I used 23 and pushed for days couldnt stand it. hell I resort to pinning 20's with heavy oils....I think i must like it or something

I pull with 21 and inject with 25....there's no way I could inject with a 21 gauge it scares me just looking at it....looks like a little harpoon

Used 27g with test cyp and it was hard to draw out but went in easy. Ill try drawing with a lower number like 22 in the future..
Lots of TRT docs are now recommending patients use these smaller needles. Actually read where they're recommending SubQ injections.Quote:

The smaller needle AND the slower injection causes less trauma to the muscle. So, it's a win/win!
I don't think the mg concentration of the gear has much to do w/ how hard it is to push...it's more the viscosity of the solvent. Put your vial in hot water to warm the oil. It'll push easier.Quote:
