To have a genuine one stop shot (where the person is not physically able to continue fighting no matter how much adrenaline or drugs he has in him), you must make a central nervous system (CNS) shot. SWAT snipers are trained to take out the medulla oblongata which is roughly a 2 inch high band at eye level.

I was told once that a sniper will aim for a spot just below the nose and that will shut off a man like a light switch.
My 2 cents- generally the area from the upper lip to eye level is good-soft tissue area.
