"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."
―Official Description

The HIKS S300 is a ThermalicoThermal sniper rifle. It does more than twice the damage per shot of any other sniper rifle. This is because of its high initial damage (2000) combined with an extremely high damage over time (1000 over 3 seconds) component. Fiery skinned zombies won't pose too much of a threat as they will still take 750 damage. Do note that the S300 only has two pierce, compared to the high pierce (4 or more) of other sniper rifles. This sniper rifle is meant to be used against any boss other than a Wicker or Thermal Necrosis Spawn. Despite all of this, in the Steam / Mobile version, its DPS is still lower than other bossing weapons, such as the Hornet and Hotspot, making it a poor choice.

The ammo of the S300 is moderately expensive at $320 for 60 rounds, or in the case of a [RED] Version one, considerably expensive at $3200 for 60 rounds. The ammo of the HIKS S300 is different from that used by the RIA 50 and the Hornet, costing twice as much.

Using high-damage ammo is extremely effective, making it one of the most damage-per-shot weapons in the game (not including augments), dealing 4000 total damage per shot. 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 is to be sustained.

The HIKS S300 is not well received by players, due to its semi-auto nature and its low DPS ; the [BLACK] Version S300 is just slightly stronger that the [RED] Version 1887 Shockfield, and is eclipsed by other [BLACK] Version weapons.

Because of the Faction Warfare update, it was possible to obtain a guaranteed 10’ 3” red HIKS S300 in the Faction Warfare Store.

Trivia[]

  • Most players used to refer the HIKS S300 as "HIKS", due to it being the only playable weapon made by HIKS before the release of the 3100M1000, and S4000.
  • This weapon bears a resemblance to the real life WA 2000 sniper rifle, in that they are both semi-auto bullpup sniper rifles. However, the WA2000 uses a smaller caliber bullet than the S300 (.603 HIKS for the S300, .300 Magnum for the WA2000).
  • The HIKS S300 received an "Easter Edition" around Easter (March 28th) 2016. It was called the BANG! Wabbit Stew, and replaced the HIKS S300 from strongboxes and crafting. Its description was "I'm waiting for the Easter Wabbit. When he comes in looking so fwuffy with his wittle basket of Easter eggs..." It is most likely a reference to Elmer Fudd from Looney Tunes.
  • The HIKS S300 is one of the only bullpup weapons in the game, making it an oddity as well as a rarity. Other bullpup weapons include the HVM 002 and HVM 005 G-Class.
  • The HIKS S300 [RED] Version version in mobile has a alternate color positions on the PC version.
  • The HIKS S300 uses a tungsten jacketed osmium round
  • The HIKS S300 is 1 of 10 weapons with their name visualized on them
  • The HIKS S300 was nerfed at some point, as the drop level used to be level 12, instead of level 41.
