Do you mean 70/30 vg/pg or 70/30 pg/vg? 70vg x Then my advice is get 80/20 vg/pg and a pg based nic shot. (I think most are pg based). You will then end up with something close to 70/30 vg/pg juice.

Frankly I would just forget all this shortfill nonsense if % are important to you and you want to mix from different suppliers. Just buy some cheap separate vg and pg and use one of the ejuice calculators.

its not been mentioned how big the shortfill is, 50ml or 100ml plus we need to know what strength the final nic strength you want. ive tried all nic shots and now use 50/50 nic shots from darkstar. 18 in a box for around £16

I don't have the cash or the time at the moment to start making my own and currently fed up of the sight of scales/syringes etc as a Type 1 diabetic I'm constantly dealing with them x

im guessing if you buy 70vg/30pg nic shots then it shoud stay 70/30 on final mix. 1 ni shot in 50ml and 2 in 100ml to make 3mg
