That's about right or a little high for 30kd6 tubes. 600 is probably the input power of the amp not the output. Are they glowing a nice cherry red when you key up?
 
yes the new tubes and the old ones glow bright get a little warm and I know how to tune tube amps but I thought I could get more the socold friend who sold it to me swears it will do 600 easy but when I cald him he came up with all kinds of excuses like reflective power my swr is barely moving scale then it was my coax cabl and jumpers they are mini 8 now he wont talk to me come to think of it the tubes don't change in brightnes when you key up
