Test E vs Test C

[bronjames]

Why is test e usually dosed higher than test c.

I see test e 300 a lot. And usually only see test c 250.

Also. Anyone with experience, if you could only buy test e 300 or test c 250 moving forward. Which one would you pick?

I think because more people use C for TRT so it’s closer to what pharma is at?

Literally not much difference in half life between the two so it truly doesn’t matter - if 300 meant you are pinning less oil that would be a reason I guess

i see test e people say they have more pip than test c. Is that cause it’s usually dosed higher ?

It's because the "batch" of enanthate that is going around now probably had some manufacturing problems and some impurities are still mixed with the compound.

The difference in concentration in the oils is likely just due to solubility... people put in as much as they can (easily) without the oil precipitating and crystallizing ("crashing").

I prefer Test E because you get more total Test for the same price. But C is generally less pip.

Why are there no problems with test c raw batches. It’s usually test e only right ?

All honesty, I don't know this story, so anyone who does should correct me. However, I think your perception is that there are many different enanthate and cypionate batches being produced and sold. I think the truth is closer to the idea that one massive batch of enanthate that makes up the majority of the "raw" ester that's around. People buy and prepare it in oils and distribute it, but the source for most of them is either the same batch or a common manufacturing process. I don't know why the enanthate would have an issue that cypionate doesn't, which may (again) reflect one batch that had an oopsie, or one process that hasn't been ironed out.

Chemically speaking, esterification reactions can involved some pretty nasty reagents. Even very simple reactions, like making a methyl ester from a simple carboxylic acid, involves acidified alcohol that reacts violently with water. If any of that reagent is not fully evaporated, I'd expect it to be quite unpleasant to put into your flesh.

Like T&H said, the prices for enanthate are better on a per-molecule basis... the ester weighs pretty much the same, the concentration is higher, and the vials tend to be the same price. I don't know how the pip is for modern enanthate, but people tolerate shit like DHB and aqueous suspensions, so it seems like there's a huge variety in the amount of misery people are willing to accept.

I dont ever even notice a difference in them
