How to kill a giga

  • DamageMultiplier = 100 / (100 + Armor Coefficient * Armor)
  • TotalDamage = Damage * DamageMultiplier
  • DamageReduction = 1 - DamageMultiplier

Armor Coefficient from firearms/melee weapons is 4.
Sniper base damage is 165 => 330 in your case.

On officials, saddles are capped at 124 armor, so your gun will do 55.37 per shot in a worst-case scenario. However, you are not telling us if the giga is tamed or bred.

Average tamed gigas have 18-19k hp, but I've seen unicorns with 20k hp. Assuming a giga above average (19k) with a max saddle, you'll need 346 rounds to take it down. If the giga is bred, you have a few more elements to factor in, such as imprint, creature is ridden or not, mutations, etc. Bred gigas will easily have over 34k hp.
