Abstract：The testing study on dynamic property of rock under high strain rate is of important significance for national defence and civil construction. The testing data of Hugoniot are presented for Lantian granite under pressure range of approximately 78 MPa to 5.2 GPa. The test was conducted on a single-stage light gas gun of 57 mm. The general impact experimental configuration and the reverse ballistic experimental configuration with electro-magnetic particle velocity gage were used to obtain shock velocity and particle velocity. Lantian granite is different with others in acoustics and dynamics. There is a corner for the relation between shock velocity and particle velocity under about 0.47 GPa，and the result is well in accord with that of spherical divergent wave in Lantian granite. The ferromagnetic effect of Lantian granite is very strong. Electromagnetic field is excitated by shock wave. The electromagnetic field can severely disturb particle velocity signals. The reverse ballistic experimental configuration can effectively decrease the disturbanc and it is a very good method for testing study on the dynamic property of rock
