AMMUNITION
At Ballistic & Mechanical Testing we have access to unique testing ammunition that no other testing laboratory has access to. In addition we carry a very comprehensive range of threat ammunition. We go to great lengths to ensure that we source our ammunition from the same batch lots so that we can provide our customer with absolute continuity and traceability of their test data.
