Sorry bro.....ive never used the pen, straight out of the gate I used the vial and just inserted half a Q-tip to push on.
 
Its really not bad at all bro, just a jab and a push.....second nature second time around really.

Would the needle go far enough in if the plunger was cut for a half dose?

A bro is hooking me up with a couple of Imitrex shots tonight, so I am gonna try the 'Trex tip.
Like I said, I am stupid in that I try anything once - including smearing a towel with Mentholatum, sticking it in the freezer, and then wrapping the head at onset. Didn't help, but I did almost go blind!
 
I hate needles, but I hate CH's more, so got to give this a try.
 
Peace,
