Does anyone happen to have the 1 unit caliper measurement(mm) for this type of BD brand syringes? I would get the measurement myself but, not a correct zero line in the bunch. TIA 
ETA: I saw the 1.62mm measurement for BDs on the caliper sticky page. Wasn't sure if that covered all BD syringes. Since the syringes I'm using are mis-marked I'm a lil wary of using the unit marks to get the measurement myself.

Moey's SS looks fantastic!!
I used the BD Ultrafine II syringes and used 1.15 mm. I started out with 1.16, mostly because it made the math easier for 0.25 units changes. 
And frankly, a difference of 0.01 isn’t significant. What is important is that you measure the same each time. Which you will do with calipers. To measure your brand, it doesn’t matter where the zero line is. Just measure from top of zero line to top of 10 unit line, and divide by 10 to get one unit amount. Do it on a couple syringes and hopefully you will get close enough. I think I averaged.
The problem with the zero line inaccuracy is where you put the bottom of the caliper. I pushed up the plunger to see true zero, and measured from there. Neko’s dose for quite a while was under the printed zero line,
