This is considering sea level and 20C

The 300 burns 1600lbs the 1st hour and about 900lbs every hour after that. And a min VFR reserve of 800-1000lbs

You are asking for a serious accident by trying to work a 100 or 300 into a 2500ft strip. Please consider another airport or another airplane.
The math won’t work at all

Many operators consider a 4000ft strip (dry) as good to go.
Anything less than that requires safety evals and multiple eyes looking at it.
