It’s 3 shots with the auto cannon in the tail and they bleed out. Same thing can be done with a lot of the primary weapons, it just takes a good amount of shots. Even the sickle can do it after changing heat sinks a couple times, you just have to matador them.
And by other bugs you mean 4 other chargers and 3 bile titans. Playing on higher difficulties, effective anti tank is a must. We used to run 2x EAT, now we run 3x quasar since it has unlimited ammo and isn’t a pain to drop it all the time
The butt is an explosive weak point. Non explosive weapons do 10% damage when striking it, where explosive type weapons do full damage. Charger butt, bile variant side sacks and the titan belly are all examples of these weak point and why most primary weapons struggle to kill these enemies.
What REALLY doesn’t make sense is how shooting their exposed butt does basically nothing.

Explosives are the only way that is remotely ammo efficient. Half your primary ammo isn’t what I would call effective.
I can take one down with a sickle without needing to change a heat sync once, you just have to patient.
The new quasar cannon kills them in one shot to the face.
That’s not exactly feasible when you have to deal with all the other bugs that normally come with them.

When you actually try it in game, it comes out to be like 30% extra dmg. It’s not good.
