It depends. Some needles stay sharper than others. If you are havingto pin multiple vials before yourself I'd say spare the pain and change it out, it's more than likely going to be too dull. But if only pinning one vial before injection, try it out and see if it's still sharp enough. Just make sure to swab the top of the vial with an alcohol swab before sticking the vial.

What are u pinning? It should state how many cc per ml the gear is. 250cc usually would be 1ml.
U can draw and pin with the same needle, then dump it. Use afresh pin every time.

you can draw with any it is just much faster with a 18 or 20. and 23 and 25 are much better for injecting it leaves less scar tissue.

do u mean you want 250 mg? but look at your vial and see what it says it should say something like "250mg/per ml" if thats the case then you would draw only 1 cc

Bro, if the bottle says 250mg of lets say Test, 1ml or 1 cc will be 250mg of Test or whatever it is you are taking.
As for me, I would never use the same needle I draw with (usually a 20 gauge). Now you can use the same needle over to draw with, then pin with a NEW 23-25 gauge. Then you will be gtg

Sorry to disagree. the only reason to draw with such a large gauge is speed. I use a blow dryer n heat my oils. Takes a minute. Then I use a 23G 1" for all my injections. Delts , pecs, gluteus , quads and some times calves. Draw turn around and stab. Just that simple and quick. No mess and NO bother.
I will use the same needle to draw from two vials and pin with it. The dulling effect is so miniscule it is ridiculous. I bet I could pin you guys with the same point I drew out of two vials and you would never know it...I promise you, Listen, when have you seen a doctor or nurse change to inject. I have never seen it. My doc draws from 3 vials and shoots me straight into my hip joint and my thumb etc...
The nurse the same., my daughter an RN the same.
The more you handle the needles the more chance of infection. ONLY and ONLY if you had extreme tough scare tissue would you feel it. AND one more thing, if you are stabbing , penetrating your shin/ tissue slowly you are doing it wrong...it is a quick stab or it might just hurt.
What is the rush, like I say if you can push oil into you body with a 23-25 gauge why do you need a 18-20 gauge to draw, WTF is the hurry.
Ya know I tried all this draw with one , change to pin with this one...and after a few times I asked myself WTF am I doing this for, WTH is my hurry and all this changing of needles, this is stupid. Just pin it, stab it quickly.

Haha got me, I have been pinning for almost 20 years and still get nervous sometimes lol.
I just got over an infection in my quad. First time ever it sucked. I don't really know how because I'm pretty damn cautious. Same bottle I was already using.

You don't want 250 CC's, that's almost 8 1/2 Oz., and yeah, that's allot.
I think what you mean to say is that you want 250 Mg.
So you already said the Vial is 10 Ml.
Wherever you saw that Info, you should also see the Name of the Hormone, and the Concentration in Mg.
So if it's Test Cypionate, and it's 250 Mg.
That's 250 Mg/per 1 Ml or 1 CC or 100 Units ~ as all those measurements are Identical.
If you are just going into 1 Vial, you should be able to use the same Pin for Injecting.
And if I'm reading this correctly, you have a 23 Gauge x 1 1/2" Needle, with a 3 CC barrel.
That length is fine for Glutes, but Too Long for Quads, at least for me.
I use a 25 Gauge x 5/8" or 1" for Quads, too many Nerves in the Quad to be using a 1 1/2" needle............... JP
