If all you want to do is plink targets then it's hard to see why you wouldn't just stick with 5.56 or even 7.62x39 since the ammo is cheap.

I view my 300 BLK setup as my SHTF rifle. It has way more muzzle energy and probably stopping power than a 5.56 cartridge, has all of the ergos of an M4 and I can mix it up on the fly by switching between subsonic and supersonic loads.

The $400 in tax stamps and $200 for my Trust paperwork is a drop in the bucket compared to what I spend on actual training and shooting.
