Silent Night's criticals random?

[Rialstrom]

Been farming Skagzilla for an Elephant and got a lvl 44 Silent Night. Thought "Cool! 800% crit damage." Been fighting Skagzilla with it, but i swear the crits are random. Majority of my crits do only 5.4k on it, other times 15k damage.

Tried googling it and can't really find anything. This there something about this gun i'm just not noticing?

its not just the guns crit damage, many other things can effect it too such as the skills, class mods, level of the character and weapon

do you only use that gun or do you use corrosive weapon/bloodwing? corrosive does have a minor slag/ice effect of increasing damage by 15%. or at least it did idk if it still does.
also there used to be bug that disabled either class mods or skills, and that could be it.

Only been using this gun against him. Explosive Bloodwing. Here were my runs after I last posted.

Run 1:
-Did only 5.4k crits.
-Dropped another Silent Night lvl 46.
-Switched it with the old one.
-The old one is now randomly lvl 53 (was 44), but deals less damage. The hell?

Run 2:
-Did 15.9k crits.
-Great. Maybe the old one was broken.

Run 3:
-Did 5.9k crits.
-Nvm then.....

Run 4:
-Still 5.9k crits.

Run 5:
-Before driving there, weapon scrolled like a maniac.
-Also whent to inventory and see the recent SN is now lvl 45........ wut?
-Did 15.9k crits.

Run 6:
-Mimics the stuff in last run.
-Did 5.9k crits.......

This is the only gun i seen so far in both my playthroughs that does this. I think the Silent Night is just broken.

EDIT:

Did more runs but i did the weapon scroll thing after exiting the runner and I keep getting 15k+ crits everytime so far. Maybe the skill that doubles rifle mags causes it to mess up? The SN keeps having 3/6 ammo, but weapon scrolling puts it back at 6/6. Just guess work at this rate.
