Right, and one flattering data point from a group buy is not consistency. Consistency means separate batches, separately commissioned, over months.

Compounding pharmacy dose accuracy check for dosing arithmetic: I always verify my first dose from a new vial by weighing it on a milligram scale. Draw up your dose, weigh the syringe, subtract empty syringe weight, compare to expected water weight at that volume.
For a 10-unit dose (0.1mL): expected weight ~100mg of water. If it's significantly off, your syringe may be inaccurate. Cheap insulin syringes can have ±5% volume accuracy. Spring for quality brands like BD or Terumo.
Following on from wendy_avl — and this may be the naive question:

Reconstitution tip for anyone mixing dosing arithmetic from lyophilized powder: use bacteriostatic water, NOT sterile water. The benzyl alcohol in BAC water preserves multi-dose vials for up to 28 days.
Inject the water slowly down the side of the vial. NEVER shake — gentle swirling only until fully dissolved. Should be crystal clear with no particles.
