Preload the syringes?

[goin on 4T]

Not true. i have gear that is blended with a mixture of oil, solvents and ethyl oleate and it doesnt effect the plunger at all. i have also used test prop @ 1.5 cc and added 1.5 cc of pure ethyl oleate to the syringe and let it sit for a week (traveling) and it didnt effect it.

To the thread, its alright to pre load syringes, like maybe a 10cc vial of test prop, test suspension, basically short esters because you will be using it ed to eod anyways so it saves the hassle. if youre using long esters like test e, shootin twice a week, then it may not be a good idea. ive done both but only because i wanted to see if the vials measureout and they didnt (10cc had 8, 20cc had 16, right on the line). whatevers more conienent

Well there are well known sources that have posted not to do this on their site because the BA oil does eat the plunger. No I have never seen it because I wouldn't risk it.

I've done it with no problems whatsoever but never did more than 2-3wks at a time.

At the same time there's really no reason to do it unless like somone said you're traveling.

Plus i have heard that if you use gear that is cut with Ethyl Oleate; the ethyl oleate will eat at plastic. Just hear-say if anyone else can confirm that.

^^^ yes.

yea thats true, what about the syringe being a completely sealed and sterile environment like the vial

There is sort of a "Best Practices" post on TSC about injections. There are so many variables at play. Here's a list off the top of my head of where you can run into trouble.

*Once you remove the cap on the pin (exposed to air)
*Making sure the top of the vial is clean (always exposed to outside elements)
*To make sure you get all of what's in the pin, they say pull the plunger back some to create an air pocket so when you shoot it, the air pocket pushes all of whats in the pin, into you (definitely don't want to do that if preloading).
* Recapping...did anything get in the cap or around the rim of the cap (what did you lay it down on)

I'm sure if you did it you would be fine. Personally I wouldn't do it, too much risk. Whatever you do, don't wipe the needle with an alcohol swab. This was discussed at length on TSC and some folks said they felt better swabbing the needle as it would kill whatever was in the air that got on the needle...that's not correct and puts you at greater risk of infection.

ill preload my injection for the next morning before i go to bed somtimes. but thats it.

 

[usmcnut]

I preload for the week... Have done it every cycle without ever a problem. And all types of gear.
Everyone that says don't has only HEARD that you shouldn't, they have no stories of their own. And its not being lazy because if you load it today or tomorrow you still have to load it.
And if you decide to get yourself a 18g to fill up you needle to save time.. Big gauge needles chew up the rubber on the vile and before you know it it will leak and have little black pieces of rubber in your gear.

takes 30 seconds to draw a couple of ml out of a vial , to me id rather the small 'inconvenience' then risking contamination by leaving it sitting in a barrel.
But like some guys said they have never had problems so its totally a individual thing
