    I have hit them all over the head and neck with a .223 on foot, and all but one, pole -axed.
    One that didn't was ethier jaw shot or thru the throat side on.
    Found a clump of long hair with blood on it so pretty sure I hit it in the throat too far forward.
    There is no particular sweet spot in my experience.
    Hit them central in the neck from any angle and they will tip up.
    Shoot a few thru the ribs or base of the neck and you will see how effective the cal is with the right projectile.
