---Anyways just trying to give op some ideas on how to make his setup work. No not telling them to exceed any weight ratings, that's up to them.
However, if the 6300# trailer has a tongue weight of 800# (TW% = 12.7%), the TV's GVWR will be exceeded.
IMO, if the GVWR is exceeded, things are not "working out".
If you want to "give op some ideas on how to make his setup work", it would be better to forget about GCWR and focus on how to stay within the TV's GVWR.
IMO, the OP needs to limit the TT's loaded weight to 5000# or less to make things work.
