Just for fun, let's say that you consider midstakes 5\10 or 10\20 NLHE. To earn 300K playing at 10\20, playing full time (assunming you can find a 10\20 game that runs full time), you would have to be winning about 7.5 BB an hour, or approximately 25BB/100 hands. This is an uncommonly high winrate at this level.
Playing 5/10, and making 500K, you would need to win 25 bb an hour, or 83 bb/100 hands.
I don't think your numbers are realistic.
