Loch lumberjack bugged?

[Daft Loon]

Direct hits sometimes fail to 1 shot balloons.

This can happen correctly against a pyramidion when the shot lands on the nose and gets reduced damage at the edge of the AOE, it shouldn't happen when getting a large hit-marker on the side of a goldfishes balloon as it most recently did for me.

Anyone else had this happen to them/ have a non bug explanation?

This thing is over a year old and is as random is it can be. Most noticable when shooting at a Junker on Fjords, so it takes extra long to get the kill and it is extra easy to see the bug.

Best guess I got is that the animation is wrong or some internet connection decided to troll us all hard. But then again, any other ammo type on the Lumberjack seems to deal damage as expected, especially noticable in hardcore long range battles and no other weapon has been found to have this issue.
