   We propose an 80 ks ASCA observation of the nearby Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC
   6300. An RXTE observation, revealing a huge equivalent width iron line
   and a flat X-ray continuum, leads us to believe that NGC 6300 may be
   one of the brightest reflection-dominated Seyfert 2 galaxies known,
   with 2-10 keV flux 60% that of Circinus. The proposed observation will
   allow us to confirm a reflection-dominated spectrum, search for the
   presence of scattered or thermal soft X-rays, study elemental
   abundances, and investigate the possibility of intrinsic absorption.
