Yup. I sometimes wonder if there is an anomaly in the DBS or S. 
Just occasionally I shoot at point blank range and none of the shots seem to hit the enemy.
In theory, that cannot happen. but it has happened to me many times. 
I prefer _NEAR_ point blank range rather than point blank range because it seems to happen less.
DBS should take down trooper, shotgun dude, chaingun dude, lost soul, demon & spectre with 1 shot.
DBS should take down cacodemon, pain elemental & revenant with 2 PBR shots
DBS should take down mancubus, archie, hellknight with 3 PBR shots, baron with 5 good shots.

yup, done it.

Also contrary to Hank Leukarts FAQ, I have found that the BFG if fired at PBR at Cyber it takes him down, but it has to be at
PBR. Invulnerability helps.
