    I know SFA about long range shooting or setting up a rifle for long range but I'd think I would start by looking at the trajectory of your 7/08 loads to determine how much drop you get at the range you want to shoot over then work back from there.
    That's what a Near would do

    You may find you don't need a rail and most scopes should have enough elevation to get you out to 600m.

    But remember I know SFA about setting up for long range shooting

    Cheers

    Arguing with an Engineer is like Wrestling a Pig in Mud.

    After awhile you realise the Pig loves it.
