What gun could take out a tyrannosaurus Rex with one shot?

>>63956523 (OP)
A tranquilizer gun with a fast-acting neurotoxin.

>>63956523 (OP)
700nitro express.

.45

9mm if you hit it through the eye socket it would go straight to the brain or at least cause it enough pain and blindness it would fuck off.

It’s made of flesh and bone, anything 9mm or above will kill it.

>>63956535
We're trying to kill a T-Rex, not cause an extinction event

>>63956523 (OP)
My Pingus Wingus, no doubt.

>>63956638
What, is she going to nag it to death?

>>63956523 (OP)
Dinos aren't magic like media portrays and anything that would take down an elephant would take down a t-rex. It's just a big dumb animal.

>>63956647
And elephants only call for specifically big weapons when the intention is a quick and ethical hunt. Several shots of 7.62x39 and a bit of a waiting does the job for poachers.

>>63956523 (OP)
45-70 or 12g slugs

>>63956523 (OP)
.460 Wby Mag. Anywhere vital, it'll take out a chunk of. It'll stop a polar bear too.

>>63956814
Total poacher death!

>>63956523 (OP)
no problem

>>63956638
It's a suppository!

>>63956523 (OP)
Realistically, most any .30 cal cartridge and above would be pretty effective in either getting it to fuck off or cause serious wounds. Any African big game calibers could probably drop it in one or two shots, especially if you hit the head, the chest cavity, or the pelvis.

>>63956523 (OP)
The Inkunzi PAW.

>>63956527
The dino is out before it even feels the prick of the dart.

we already have this thread

>>63956523 (OP)
A 155mm howitzer in a direct fire role

why, my peenus weanus of course :)

hahah! :D

it's my weeeeeenus peanus! :) hahah

ITT: guns that could take out a tyrannosaurus Rex with one shot - my answer is, of course, my peanus weenus :D

WM Bell was able to drop hundreds of elephants right where they stood with military surplus 6mm and 7mm rifles using standard ammunition.
Obviously he was an incredible marksman and world class autist, but still, he made the brain shot with normal rifles.

>>63959369
what would trex pussy feel like?

>>63956523 (OP)
Better question. How would you kill this thing if you were in the water?

>>63956523 (OP)
My throbbing cock hitting her G spot

>>63959407
Harpoon gun with explosive harpoons.

>>63956539
it has a tiny brain tho. from the ground you probably couldnt get a good angle

>>63956523 (OP)
You're asking this because of the Kentucky Ballistics video aren't you?

In any case .50 BMG.

>>63959407
Believe it or not, also .50 BMG, but specifically a supercavitating load so the bullet doesn't self-explode innawata. DSG Cav-X is the only one I'm personally aware of but there might be others.

>>63959388
It's a cloaca not a trussy and your gnome ass ain't tall enough to reach it anyways

Could a very large male African bush elephant hold its own against a T-Rex? The dinosaur is actually heavier but the elephant has such a neat tank built compared to the more limber bipedal frame. If the elephant can ram the rex he might be able to crush its ribs or topple him and then it's stomping time.

>>63960175
A very large bull elephant might stand a chance, but honestly my money would be on the Tyrannosaurus. Average sizes for adult Tyrannosaurs seem to be pretty well in-excess for the average sizes of elephants. Elephant tusks aren't really in a good position for use as weapons, and an elephant would have no experience with a predator larger and stronger than it while a Tyrannosaur habitually went after prey as large as itself. I think given some of the bite force calculations, if a Tyrannosaur got a bite in, it would be all over.

>>63960586
Yeah, I don't think I favor elephant bro but I also don't think it's hopeless. Carnivores can be pussies. I'm also rooting for the elephant due to cenozoic tribalism. Mesozoic bitches can get fucked

>>63956523 (OP)
Der T-Rex is closer in the optical sight than it appears. MACHT SCHNELL WITH THE SHELL!

>>63959373
>Incredible shot
An elephant brain is larger than a walnut.

>>63961158
NTA. I read a bit about WM Bell. He did make some impressive headshots on elephants in motion, from being their shoulders. Even if the brain is as large as the skull, a shot like this is impressive.

>>63961552
Man made it a point to saw elephant skulls in half so he could study the angles for the shot.

>>63961158
If you put a bullet anywhere close to a T Rex's brain the bone fragments will kill it instantly.
Bell with a simple .275 against the thick skull of an elephant was able to penetrate the bone and kill the animal where it stood. He shot the thinnest part of the skull usually, but still, penetration depth with a caliber most hunters wouldn't consider was more than sufficient.

A more powerful single shot rifle, or an automatic rifle, loaded with appropriate ammunition, is going to rip straight through a T Rex skull and stop it before it reaches the hunter at any reasonable distance.

>>63960586
>>63961102
Bull elephant vs T Rex massively favors the elephant because the made for charging herbivore would crumple the narrow, long carnivore with the first charge, and would be able to turn faster.

The T Rex's tail mass isn't adding combat strength.

>>63959461
It's brain is like the size of your head.

>>63956523 (OP)
AT-4

>>63959407
SPLIT YOUR LUNGS WITH BLOOD AND THUNDER

>>63956638
Why does that look like if you want to send that to someone you are saying this is where you are obviously because im sending a giant push pin at you. But you won't be here any longer.

>>63959373
>>63961742
WDM Bell should have a cognitive bias named after him because people that don't hunt and barely shoot absolutely love to bring him up in discussions like this.
>Yeah it would be hard to get a shot on x animal in y scenario
>BUT BELL COULD DO IT THOUGH!!!1!

>>63956523 (OP)
Finish your other thread first >>63925360

>>63961742
But can those bone fragments hit the trex walnut sized brain?

>>63962126
WHEN YOU SEE THE WHITE WHALE

>>63956523 (OP)
80mm Howitzer of choice.
GG WP mr. Reptilian.

>>63957131
I suppose.

>>63961746
I think you're seriously overestimating the willingness of a bull elephant to charge a carnivore significantly larger than it and also significantly underestimating the strength and agility of a Tyrannosaur's legs. There have been studies on this topic, their legs were massive and powerful, but also easy for it to turn on. Yes a full on charge with a lot of space to build up would potentially be devastating, but I think the elephant is just as likely to turn and run, and if it's a bluff charge, it's not going to get another chance. Tyrannosaurs hunted prey that was larger than elephants for a living, but there's no elephant ever that has fought something the size of a large adult Tyrannosaurus.

>>63962403
An elephant is intelligent enough to be brave if it needs to be.

>>63956523 (OP)
A .50 BMG rifle, with a round designed for penetrating heavily armored targets, is likely the smallest caliber that could reliably take down a T-Rex with a single shot, assuming good shot placement. Stronger rounds like the .577 Tyrannosaur would also be effective.

>>63962539
Idk anon, there seem to be lots of videos of elephants being startled. Sometimes animals are just skittish.

>>63961746
>massively favors the elephant
T. rex feeding impressions have been found on many of these btw. Im sure occasionally an elephant would come out on top if you ran it a bunch of times but the idea that a T. rex wouldn't be able to handle a maneuverable charging horned prey animal is just silly on its head.

>>63956523 (OP)
>Absolutely perfect shot
9mm
>I think I could do it
.50 BMG explosive
>If it survives, it deserves to kill me
RPG

>>63961746
a couple other anons have mentioned this, but T. rex killed and ate Triceratops, Edmontosaurus, and possibly Alamosaurus, which were all substantially larger than a bull elephant. Elephants have also never encountered a predatory animal larger than them. A bull elephant would have no idea what it was looking at with a T. rex, while it would be just another day for the Tyrannosaur.

>>63956539
are there really retards who believe stuff like this? 9mm is a great round, but it absolutely wont kill anything living, not with ease at least. larger animals like bears and moose have dense bones, large amounts of muscle and fat, and thick skin, all of these factors lead to a these animals being able to absorb most shots with smaller calibers. now sure if you hit it in its vitals you can probably kill it but A: if your close enough to make that shot your probably already dead and B: I doubt your very knowledgeable about dino anatomy. I'd recommend a .44 mag minimum and even than I think your a tard if you think anything short of a rifle round would be appropriate.

>>63963547
>but it absolutely wont kill anything living
Tell that to Trayvon lmao

The Lord’s caliber, .45 ACP.

>>63956523 (OP)
a well placed javelin will do the job

>>63963547
you're moving the goal posts to "be able to kill it regardless of shot placement"

>>63962563
50 BMG is outrageously more powerful than 577 you fucking idiot.

>>63962254
Sure why not.

>>63962898
it's so fascinating looking at how different, massive beasts evolved throughout the history of the earth. Even if you were to only find a herbivore with huge defensive horns, it makes one wonder what kinds of beasts those horns evolved to combat.

>>63963824
No, I'm simply saying we need to be realistic about shot placement. the margin of error to kill a T-Rex with 9mm is unacceptably small. you don't need to vaporize it but Id want around that could probably do enough truma in a head or chest shot to slow down and kill it without having to get the perfect shot that your not gonna hit while getting charged by a T-Rex.

>>63957131
I saw it too

>>63956523 (OP)
To the retards talking about the walnut sized brain of the TREX in the previous identical thread, you're gay and wrong, look it up.

>>63965371
There's no such thing as small arms that consistently kills something big game sized without correct shot placement. You either get good and aim under pressure or you don't kill quickly.

>T-Rex does not see me
577 Tyrannosaur Rifle

> T-Rex is charging at me
Uh... Maybe an AR-10?

>>63956523 (OP)
2gauge

>>63962539
an Elephant is also smart enough to say fuck this and run away

They never existed to begin with.

So space lazers if we want to dabble in fiction.

>>63971181
It may not exist currently but a space death laser could at least theoretically be built with current technology.

If we're talking pure fiction I think that one kamehameha lightning beam spell from Skyrim would work pretty good.
