EPVAT is an abbreviation for "Electronic Pressure, Velocity and Action Time" (French "Pression électronique, vitesse et durée d’action"). Action Time here means the (short amount of) time required between the ignition of the primer and the projectile leaving the barrel. This is a comprehensive procedure for testing ammunition using state-of ...
NATO defines 5.56mm, 7.62mm, 9mm, and 12.7mm using the NATO EPVAT test methods, which includes pressure testing. Unlike the civilian testing methods NATO EPVAT testing procedures for the "NATO rifle chamberings" require the pressure sensor or transducer to be mounted ahead of the case mouth.
