22 gauge will be snug and if you do your breadboarding like Darrel does it all should stay put.

My 16F887 is attached to a Microchip PC board. It is the PICkit #2. My problem is getting ten signal wires off that board an onto a solderless proto board like Darrel used. Are you all suggesting that I do the whole job on a solderless board? If I were to do that, where do I get the solderless header that fits my Microchip provided USB connector? I'm pretty sure my 44 pin square shaped PIC will not fit. I need the long rectangle shape.
