How Would You Hunt a Dinosaur?
You’d need:
1. A team, with synchronized fire, ideally hitting vital zones.
2. Heavy weaponry, potentially including:
– .50 cal rifles
– Autocannons (e.g., 20mm)
– Grenade launchers
– Anti-tank weapons (for sauropods or armored species)
– A means of carrying the necessary ammunition and supplies.
3. Other Variables
– Behavior: Predators can be stopped more easily than herbivores in a panic or stampede.
– Skin and Bone Density: Some dinosaurs had keratinous layers or air-sacs that reduced damage.
– Vital Targeting: If you can’t reach brain/heart/lungs due to scale or armor, lethality drops significantly.

Conclusion
Most standard military rifles would not be sufficient to reliably kill the largest dinosaurs. They could be effective against smaller or medium theropods with well-placed shots.

For the truly gargantuan or armored ones, you’d need anti-materiel weapons or heavier, up to and including 20mm+ autocannons, missiles, or explosives.
