Vial Quantity?

Am I drawing wrong or something??
I use a vial with 10ml...250mg per ml
I'm doing 400mg per week...pinning twice a week...so I do .8ml twice a week.
If a vial has 10ml, I should get 12.5 .8 draws from it. I'm getting pretty much exactly 10 draws.

I draw with an 18 and pin with a 25
I draw down to the top line of the plunger...actually I draw past, push any air back into the vial, and push up until the top of the plunger is at the .8 line.
After I remove the needle, I draw up air to get all the juice into the barrel, swap needles, push out air, and pin...pretty straight forward.

Would it make a difference if I drew with my 25?
I'm on my 3rd vial of this stuff and I can see it's not going to last me my scheduled cycle.
Am I doing something wrong or has anyone been suspicious of the qty of juice in their vial?

With all the guides online, confusing ml with mg. The vials are usually 10 ml, for example 1 ml of Testo Enanthate contains 250 mg of product.
 
Ok you are using 0.8 ml twice a week, a 10ml vial will last 6.25 weeks. The size of the needle doesn't matter unless there is oil left inside the needle.

Exactly...I'm only getting 5 weeks out of a vial.

Are you using a insulin pin or a 3ml syringe? Your measurements could be off if using a 3ml.

Also, if your vial was 1ml short, then after week 5 you would only have about 1/2,ml left. So if your bttls are even off a little it makes s big difference.

My guys 10ml bttls are rarely exactly 10ml. There usually 9.5-10.5 but occasionally one is 1-2ml short. If you're source does that to you on a regular basis, it is not good and you should go with someone else. If it's just an oddball once in a blue moon thing, I would cough it up the human error. **** happens

Thx man...I use a 3ml syringe. Is some staying in the barrel or something? I'm pretty anal about my measurements.
It's a manufactured product. I get it from a buddy but it's boxed etc...

And yes, exactly...after week 5 there was just a drop left. So now I'm on my second vial and I can see that one running short already. So I had to order a third from this guy; hence my prior post about using test after 12 weeks because I won't use it all and can't stand the thought of tapping into a 3rd vial for 2 weeks.
Maybe I just up the dose and use it all.... :)
 
Your loosing a tiny amount on the 3cc tips and if other then that your measurements are correct, then the bottles are most likely a little short too.
 
Your process is good, but you definitely do lose a little oil that stays in the pinning needle - this can’t be helped. This is why I use 27g slinpins for shots within 1ml. Draw and shoot with no loss. I do daily shots usually on cycle so using slinpins makes a big difference in saving wasted oil.

For 2 shots per week, the loss isn’t too bad, but it does add up on a lower dosed cycle.

But it also sounds like all your vials are probably 1cc/ml short. If the product is really good and price is right, then whatever, but they are screwing you technically with shrinkflation (less product to hold their unit cost down for same profit).
