It depends on if you want silver metal or the silver chloride your salt will give you. Some sterling silver scrap has lead from soldering that will go into nitric and form a lead chloride solid with salt as well. With cementing on copper you will not get a lead precipitate.
If your 300ml was 70% nitric mixed 50/50 with distilled water it would dissolve 8 ¾ Troy ounces of silver under moderate heat. Since yours is 60% and you have put extra copper in it will dissolve less. If you have the scrap, keep adding until no more dissolves with moderate heat. Once cool you will want to filter your solution before cementing on copper. You may have formed some silver nitrate crystals as your solution cools, but they dissolve easily with water.
