I am huge proponent for ' BIGGER IS BETTER '!
I would like to load 600 grain cast lead to about 1,500 FPE, or a little less.

Here you go, 600 gr. solid and 570 JHP with the HP pins installed in the mould. Don't know about getting it up to 1,500 fps but I am shooting these close to 1,100 fps. out of a 16" bbl.

Well, that is the nice thing about BIG,... going slow doesn't hurt the performance all that much. If I can duplicate the energy of a 223 at the muzzle with 600 grains, I would be happy.
 
Hey Brandon,.... yup, it's a lot of weight compared to my 36 grain varmint load. But, I kinda look at it like this,... 600 grain cast lead is like using a bowling ball,... compared to an ice pick. :ugeek:
