Yup, feels like a big nerf.
It used to oneshot nursing spewers with a body shot for example, now takes two. It also used to oneshot brood commanders with a head shot, albeit inconsistently. And it was decent at clearing clumps of small ennemies. Oh well, such is the way of things with balance patches.
