Over this last weekend I have notice that if you shoot at a timber wolf at about 500 m with a guass or PPC you can score direct cockpit damage without touching anything else.

The cockpit isn't shielded by any other component. If your aim is good enough... Headshot.

I've mentioned in the past its cockpit hitbox is big.

This is the case with many Clan mechs but most people don't try and aim for them. It's one of the many elements meant to help balance the Clans with the IS...except few to no one clued in.

Also note: Headshots that are actually headshots aren't supposed to 'touch anything else'. That's why it takes 33 damage to destroy a cockpit (if fully armored).
