If I am going into a very small muscle and or subcutaneous I use the 5/8''. I haven't looked into insulin syringes for gauge and length. I think they are smiliar.
Do you have to get a prescription for syringes from your VET?
I've had the 1 inch and I think they are too long. I'm going to have to find an old order form...its been so long since I ordered and I buy alot at a time and I don't have many litters so they last forever.

I order mine online....not from my vet.
