I have beenPVE hunting with my BH and to a 'T' the damage has been all the same:
700 for Critical shot, 400 for Confusion shot, 900 for critical shot on a KD'ed creature(rounded, don't remember exact number), WTH is with that?

Damage is not random. But it does change from target to target. Your weapon has a base damage that is multiplied based the special you use, your accuracy over the targets defense, as well as your cl vs the target's, and finally vs the armor resistance on the target.
Using the same special against the same target in the same state with the same weapon will result in the same exact damage. I have recorded the multipliers for several rifle specials in my sig link if you would like to check it out.
