You do any and all compounds subq?
Mind you, I am dosing for TRT. 120mgs/week is a blast. Divide 3.5 injections/ week by a 200mg compound and the oil volume is minimal. Yes all compounds except suspension, also D and U esters as they are extremely long, those do not metabolize quickly from the site causing welts, but that is me.

That's what I do!:cool:

I will preload my slin pins for about a week, but I will place them where the needle is downward so that there is a small air bubble near the plunger. I can't say they always stay in this position 100% of the time, but I try, lol. I have them sealed in a plastic sandwich bag in a cool dark area too:)
Everyone is on the move. I assume trying to save time pre loading for weeks in advance.

I had no idea this practice was so popular, . very Low solvent % oils makes allot more sense for this practice. .09% BA is a no no. some HG has allot of BB... just insane.

Sterility isn’t an issue but some solvents used in gear will eat up the plungers of your syringes.
That's it right there. I do it on Monday and the last one gets used on Friday but I am probably injecting plasticizers.. not good. But when I am using Test P for my TRT I like to back load 3 pins at a time. Probably gear with less solvent like Test E would be better since at least some pharmas only use an oil and 2% BA. UGL is anyone's guess what gasoline is in it.

Could consider leaving a vapor barrier between the gear and the plunger. That would keep the solvent from degrading the plunger.

What if only storing a pre loaded syringes for a few days, maybe up to 4-5 days. Any issue with stopper decay for that short period?

I usually don’t go more than 2 days if any at all.

That entirely depends on the solvents and carrier used. EO, high solvent content, or any super solvents and it doesn't take long to eat the stopper.

swelling and discoloration of rubber membrane is visible. those who pull plunger up and store hanging down would be the second best method.

Understood. Its mainly just test (e, c, or sust typically). Right now would also be some mast e as well.

Picked up some new Luer Lock syringes with an extended gasket to minimize dead space. Exel was only other brand that had same "no dead space" Luer Lock syringe, but there were no pictures I could find or reviews. I've been using Exel for a long time and have been very pleased... just couldn't find enough info to pull trigger on them, in spite of them being half the price of the Easy Touch ones. Easy Touch is good, too. I just haven't used them in a while. Also changed up my injection needles to 28g, 0.75". Currently use 27g, 0.5", but oftentimes they feel just shy of not getting deep enough, particularly in legs. I am lean (and small) enough, however, that 1" would be too long for the sites I use.
