30 dmg from ONE R99 headshot

Someone care to explain to me how TF ONE R99 headshot does 30dmg? 

Now right away your first reflex might be to explain it with the sync of the Server being funky and therefore some damage that should have been counted to the second..."bracket" of damage (you know the one that says 113dmg by 4 headshots and 5 body hits) was somehow accredited to this one headshot that has been counted seperately for whatever reason. 

But that can't be. The section listing 113dmg adds up perfectly. I always record my games (well 95% of them) so I was able to check what helmet I had. I had a white helmet. And a white body shield which means 150HP.

Overall I took 150dmg. 30 + 113 + 7 = 150dmg. And I got knocked. So I did in fact take 150dmg.

The 113dmg part shows (excluding the 30dmg headshot) 4 Headshots and 5 body hits. One R99 headshot on a white helmet does 15dmg. A body hit does 11, a limb hit 9 dmg. This works out perfectly. 4 x 15 = 60. 53dmg remaining = 4 x 11 + 1 x 9. That means all the shots in the 113dmg section have the correct damage values. And as I said the rest adds up to 150dmg, so I took indeed 30dmg from one R99 headshot. Like…how?!

I’m not posting this cause I think that I would’ve survived bla bla. I pretty much stood still cause I had to heal and I only had a bow. I just want to show this apparent issue in the damage output of a gun. That’s really all I want to do with this post.
