Don't have tree squirrels about, but we do thousands of ground squirrels each spring. The idea with those is to get them dead with little worry as to shot angle or subsequent consumption. A lot fewer scamper off if one is using HP's. One also tends to hear the impact with HP's but not so with solids. Within reasonable ranges, I do try for heads, but if stretching out past 100 yds I'm happy with just a hit
