No Brit has officially pressed 600lb in comp in the UK. 250 is the current record in GPC there are 2 people who share the record the latest was Baz Baraclough

I've just spent 20 mins googling info on him and seen claims he benched 600 on 3-4 different occasions.

I can't find anything official though so will assume it's bulls**t lol.
