PING cartridge, is it really 200units?

Since being on my pump for a month, my sugar levels have never been better. i love this pump!!! When i prime/rewind and load the cartridge with a full dose of 200units of insulin, it never stops at 200units, usually stops around 190-194units? why is that, does anyone else's pump do this? after looking at the whole picture, i believe I waste a good 15-20units going through a full switch of inset & cartridge. just wanted some thoughts on this, thanks!
