It is my belief that if the existing special ammo economy is to remain, then all specials should be returned to full strength. This includes fusion rifles, shotguns and sniper rifles.
At least they would be more fun to use in the limited amount of time you have to use them.

Yep there is no reason this doesn't happen. If the special economy worked like this from the start no special weapons would have been nerfed and there never would have been a special meta.
