[QUOTE="ENNOT, post: 378582, member: 3562"] That's the easiest way to do it. The cost of the gun is high, but after 20 head it pays for itself. Disposable needles are what, $0.20 each, they are cheap and easy to dispose of. And you don't get anything going back in the bottle. We also have a couple guns that draw off the bottle through a hose that work pretty good, except you have to carry the bottle around all the time and make sure the hose doesn't get kinked, but they are real handy and cheap. Once the vaccine leaves the bottle, whether it is MLV or KV, it is compromised as to its efficacy. Don't draw off the vaccine the night before. Take a cooler and an ice pack and carry the vaccine with you until you need it, one dose at a time or whatever. Thats why they reccommend pushing air back into the bottle, to keep the original pressure the vaccine was under during bottling. There is a purpose to keeping pressure in the bottle. [/QUOTE]
