It all depends!

No pax, low fuel, wind in the right direction, capable pilot - probably (but would check all of the graphs first). Actually under these conditions I would be more than happy to do it but that would be my choice.

Loaded to the limits (legal) and nil wind even 800 mtrs might make you twitch a bit.

Have seen aborted departures with airspeed increasing very slowly and the Pilot deciding not to risk it. Don't like that personaly.

Easy to overload as well.

Wouldnt be my choice as a touring aircraft to operate from 600 mtrs.
