Anybody use a 510 GNR for hunting and willing to share loads or where they get ammunition would be greatly appreciated.  Any hunting performance related info. would be great also.

I imagine that your best source for info would be Gary Reeder.

I have shot the 510 GNR for the past 3 years, I have taken a few deer, and one 206 pound black bear with it. All one shot kills using a 350 gr. hard cast bullet at around 1100 fps..

I have 2 different loads for the 350 gr. that comes with Gary Reeders Die set, and they are a great load. I also have a load for the 315 g. bullet used in the 510 GNR. I took one deer withthe 315 gr. bullet. I got the bullets from Montana Bullet Works, use the LFN bullets, they work great.

Here are the loads I used in both my revolver and Encore barrel.

510 GNR   315 gr Cast   Unique   11.0 gr   WLP   1.580
510 GNR   350 Gr Cast (MBW)   IMR4227   29.0 gr.   WLP   1.580
510 GNR   350 Gr Cast (MBW)   IMR4227   31.0 gr   WLP   1.580
