The amount of bullet deflection caused by barrel angle to LOS is one part of the equation, muzzle velocity is the other. Without knowing how much velocity variation there is between different powder charges, you can't accurately determine the difference in POI caused by different barrel positions.

EDIT: BUT, assuming equal velocity, a 1" vertical deflection at 600 yards, and a 24" barrel, the muzzle would have to move roughly 0.0011", and 6" of vertical would require 0.0067"
