HIKS S300

"9/10 of the best shots in the trans-system prefer the S300 for its outstanding accuracy over distance. Couple that with the truly astonishing HIKS .603 tungsten jacketed Osmium round, the gun is truly devastating." -In-game description

The HIKS S300 is an exceptional sniper rifle that does more than twice the damage of any other sniper rifle. This is because of its high initial damage combined with an equally high thermal damage over time component. This sniper rifle is extremely good for any boss/zombie. Do note that the S300 only has two pierce, compared to the four or more pierce of other sniper rifles.

The ammo of the S300 is moderately expensive at $320 for 60 rounds, or in the case of a [RED] one, considerably expensive at $3200 for 60 rounds. Note how the ammo of the HIKS S300 is different from that used by other sniper rifles, costing twice as much. Premium ammo or extra damage ammo costs a significant $12,800 for 60 rounds.

Using high-damage ammo is extremely effective, making it one of the most damage-per-shot weapons in the game, not including shotguns and augments. To take advantage of the damage boost, using the Field Supplies Skill will conveniently provide premium ammo at no cost. Due to the HIKS S300's relatively low clip size, getting the capacity augment or more points into the Field Supplies Skill is a must if the free high-damage ammo supply were to be sustained.

Trivia

 * Most players refer the HIKS S300 as "HIKS", due to it being the only playable weapon made by HIKS.
 * This weapon bears a resemblance to the real WA2000 sniper rifle, in that they are both semi-auto bullpup sniper rifles that use an extremely powerful round (.603 HIKS for the S300, .300 Magnum for the WA200.
