Best varmint round for possum

Possums are really beneficial. Eat all kinds of bugs. Only real downside to them is that they like to eat cat food. If you can keep the cats and/or cat food somewhere that a possum can't get to, the problem will solve itself.

If you're feeding cats outside, you're going to keep getting possums, no matter how many you trap or kill.
 
I once dumped 16 rounds of .45ACP JHP into the head of a possum at nearly point blank range. It was a disgusting sight. I had to use a shovel to remove the head before it stopped walking away.

Then I did my homework. I ignore possums now, and let them do their thing. I would personally dispatch of kittens before a possum though, and .357mag works just fine for that.



PS- I hate cats.

Wow, you just told someone to use a 357 mag for kittens. Hope you're going to go help him clean up after that. :eek:

You're right they should use 270 win. The mess will be spread out and it will fertilize the area.
 
Looks like I got a pass on this one.

My coon dog...a foo-tick...was all about treeing him! (Not really, he smelled him and left uninterested. I hang my head in shame.)

I tagged him with red paint, strapped him on the atv and rode about a mile up the mountain and set him loose.
He did not like that atv ride. Opened the cage and he bolted out of there like a race horse at the gate.
 
They’re usually pretty easy to catch in a live trap.

Yup. I had animal control bring a live trap once to catch all the feral cats my crazy neighbor "adopted."

I caught more possums than cats. Seriously....
