Against armor

With Special Shotgun Shell, every shot on an unarmored body: 169.4 damage per second. Against Lv.5 body armor (5) its best round is Advanced AP Shotgun Shell: 121 per second. For your own shots crit chance is replaced by aim: a headshot always crits (×1.1) and meets the helmet instead (headshots and crits).

The shots-to-kill calculator runs the Saiga-12K against any boss; highest DPS guns ranks it within its class.
