I have seen this video a couple times before but it is still funny to see their reaction when they pull that trigger. :o Dale

I seen it once before also. I remember in the video that I watched though that someone actually broke the glass. I wish that part had been on here as well.

I believe they're shooting the .577 T-rex in that vid. It doesn't say for sure on that particular version, but If I remember correctly from the one I saw before, that's what it is.

I just wonder who let these guys drop his rifle 60 times.... Must have plenty of dough, Not only is that something like $8 bucks every time they go "BOOM", but I've not seen anything chambered for the T-rex going cheap.

It is the .577 that they are shooting.

I saw at least TWO different rifles... a bolt-action the majority of the time and a Ruger #1 falling block with an under-lever the guy in the blue shirt fired.   Were both rifles T-Rex's?   Check it out............

You know that is a good question. I also noticed that they used two different rifles but I just took it for granted that they were the same caliber. I don't think there is any way to know for sure.
