gauge preference for glutes

lnvanry · 08-30-2005, 05:32 PM

What is your preference for glute shots. I feel that 21 and less feels like sticking a garden hose in and anything more I have push down on the plunger way too hard.

I prefer 25g x 1.5 despite the fact that pushing 2cc's through a 25g pin in that awkward position is a pain. The lower the gauge, the more pain your going to encounter pushing it in and the higher the gauge, the longer it will take to push the oils through, so pick quick, more painful shots or longer, less painful shots. I choose the latter.

I read if you warm your gear up in a pan with some water it thins the oil out making smaller gauges practical. But i would rather take 5 min to get the oil through heated or not than use larger sized pins

I perfer 22 gauge.....23 and up is just to slow.

23 right now, was doing 25s for a long time though. I like slow shots, I dont feel a 3 second 2-3cc shot is wise. I am not a heffer, I do not want to be walking around with a sore ass for a week.

23 gauge is good....25 just takes too long...1.5inch for glutes

TJ Cline · 09-01-2005, 11:54 AM

Actually I'm using 23g 1.5 in right now and I hate them.......
Think I will buy 22g 1.5 and some 21g 1.5.

23gx1.5"

I think 23g X 1.0" is better for next time.
