High end game? Hell no. No no no. Midgame, maybe some 70-100 levels - sure, if you potato it and use with good aim. But for high endgame, and by that I meant levels 150-250, this weapon stands no chance. My Acrid, arguably the best weapon in the game, potatoed and for now once polarized, max leveled, takes a full clip of 15 shots to down level ~150 Ancient. And that is about 25+18x4=97(round it to 100, without mods) total armor-ignore damage per shot. With bullet, your best hope is to aim at the legs and spend 3+ clips to do the same damage.

There is a reason why only armor-ignore weapons fare good in the high end game - because you can't just headshot something, you have to keep shooting, and that often takes burst out of question - there has to be sustained heavy damage. These Vasto still fail entirely to Despair or even Hikou(a mini Flux), and can be easily replaced by Gremlins with Physics Impact, capable of throwing corpses for additional damage.
