I was hoping to do some possum shooting with my .223 but worried I would miss some shots and my bullet could go anywhere. Any help here? Is tree shooting only restricted to .22?
    .223 too big...22 cool...I have shot literally hundreds of them; if you miss a possum in a tree you should think about doing something else with the night...
