.22lr will do it with proper placement..but a body hit wont always drop them on the spot. you asked about energy, but what caliber are you trying to use?

Shot placement is the most crittical component, but as a rule of thumb(you can always get lucky) IMO.

under 100yrds-22mag 17hmr

under  150yrds- 22 Hornet, 218 Bee

under 200yrds- 221FB, 222 Rem

under 250-300yrds- 204 Ruger, 223, 222 Rem Mag

Over 300- 22-250, 243 and on up.

I've killed coyotes with all the above except the 17hmr, 221FB nd 204Ruger
After the first shot the rest are just noise.

Make mine a Minaska
