Got a really strong riven for this, and it still sucks. Headshots don't mean anything if the hitboxes don't always match the model. Also, as always, AoE nukers kill most enemies instantly (except bosses that don't have head hitboxes), so it can be fairly hard to even get it to trigger. Even then the damage isn't that great unless you can stack the buff, which can be hard to do due to the aforementioned reason. I found it isn't reliable close up either because sometimes it will hit a different body part due to the location of the gun, or sometimes hit a part of the model that looks like the head but is counted as a general body shot.

I can see this gun being nice for someone that likes to take their time with solo missions, but for group missions it is terrible. At least the Hema has 60 rounds and shoots in bursts. Knell just shoots a single bullet. All in all, this isn't worth the trouble to use.
