I work for a company that has purchased a small ammo manufacturer(5.56, .223 and .308). We are looking to move up to the next level a bit and need to know if anyone could recommend a company that could test our ammo for velocity and pressure. We would need these tests to have some form of certification.

western powder labs?

H. P. White Labs has been pressure and ballistic testing since the 1930's. Still in business in Maryland, I think. They were always the industry standard, as far as I was concerned.

If H.P. White is still in business, they would certainly be my choice. They have more cumulative experience than any other private firm I have ever even heard of, and have done lots of work for the big gun companies, law enforcement, the NRA, and many, many others. I agree with 7Xpress. They are (or were) the industry standard for quality "pressure measuring" work.

I just googled H. P. White
looks like there still alive and kicking!
