What calibre/rifle combination would be suitable for taking a T-REX.

[3006Sprng]

Curious what everyone would consider to be humane and accurate for taking a T-REX. What would be the minimum, and what is most reasonable? I was thinking something chambered in 14.5x114mm.

950JDJ. Allegedly the most powerful rifle on the planet.

 

[MTLabrador]

.223 with 77 TMK obviously.

Marlin is the only rifle manufacturer I know of that listed TRex on their site for their 45-70 lever action. Not sure if Ruger still has it.

I would chose 50BMG through AR 50.
Realistically mobile, wide variety of ammunition for different conditions.

A friend of mine had one. Most fun shooting I've ever had this side of full auto M2.

Hands down some of the best marketing I have ever seen. I now want a model 1895.

I have heard that the 6.5 Creedmoor will shoot a fly off of a T-Rex at a mile.
Never heard anything about how it would work ON a T-Rex...

If it were me though, I'd probably want something in the GAU 8 variety.
30mm with depleted uranium from an A10 Thunderbolt II.

Or maybe an 8" Paladin...
