Ihavent shot heaps but I have always used 3030 and later 30-06. . All dropped like rocks except 1. An old nanny, hit her with the 30-06 side on just behind the shoulder but low. She just stood there bleeding out with a hole I could put my fist through.
I finished her off and the heart was just about hanging out of the hole. What amazed me was she didn't even fall over.
No experience with 222 or similar.
I'm sure the majority will drop with a 222 but a bit extra oomph wouldn't hurt.
What about cast bullets in the 303 if range is expected to be close?
The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.
