Looks like You need to run #10 to get 10 amps at 600 feet. You will have a voltage drop. You might only have aprox. 107.676 volts at the end of the run. You will do a little better if you use strand wire. Good luck.

A 300 MCM copper conductor, with a voltage drop of 3%, is needed when supplying 50 amps for 600 feet on a 120 volt system.

You would need a #10 copper wire over the length of 100 feet to give you a working load of 10 amps at 120 volts. That will hold to voltage drop to 3% of the supply voltage.

This is a voltage drop question and the circuit's voltage must be stated.
