    Thoughts on shooting possums with a 300BLK?

    Building a 300BLK AR at the moment and I've been pretty keen on the idea of knocking down a few possums with it for a laugh. Just a bit concerned about travel distance of 300BLK subs vs. 22lr subs? Anyone got any experience with this? How about hand loading extra soft rounds purely for the purpose? Obviously I would only be taking shots which had a solid backdrop on a trunk/branch. Thoughts?

    Cheers,
