Shotgun scavs are broken.

So there I was, playing on Reserve and just killed 4 out of 5 raiders. I had thought I killed all the raiders since I apparently killed just a random scav that was in the same building. As I left the building to extract I was shot twice out of a window by a shotgun scav and all my limbs were brought down to 16 hp. From 2 shots.
I fully healed everything and stood back up to kill him, tapping him in the head and once in the arm. Then he hides inside and then leans and shoots me twice again and insta kills me, only Shroud can react as quickly as this raider shot me. I know I'm not the greatest at the game but this is actually bullshit.
Why are shotgun scavs so strong? Even just standard scavs with shotguns almost always black out a limb if I don't see them, and will always damage at least 2 limbs. I understand shotguns have spread, but this spread must be greatly exaggerated with scavs since when I use a shotgun in the shooting range the spread isn't as insane as to hit all 5 limbs of a player.
I want your guys opinions on how shotgun scavs are balanced. Is it good? Is it bad? I think it's kinda ridiculous.
