It has piss poor range and a piss poor damage profile; the Remington is a vastly superior shotgun in every way. And I say this as someone who has already grinded out the gold camo on the S-12.
As far as taking out 5 enemies in one room, maybe on a LAN connection or against players who are completely oblivious to everything happening around them. In practical use on multiplayer, I found it next to impossible to take out even 3 tightly spaced targets; you'll usually drop the first one pretty easily and then it's hit marker city until someone turns around and kills you with an SMG or pistol. There's simply no consistency to the way it does damage...I got my 250 one-shots & then some, but it took forever and I'd just as often get multiple hit markers on an enemy standing right next to me. Now I'm working on the Remington's camo & it is immensely easier to use and far more consistent with one shot kills at close range. I was incredibly thankful when I finally tallied my last bloodthirsty so I could put the S-12 away forever.
