500 Jeffery Bullets (Need a good Source)

Does anyone know where to find a reliable source of .510 bullets to shoot in a 500 Jeffery. I'm still trying to decide if I am going to convert my rifle into a 500 Jeffery. Other than Huntingtons (who charge top dollar) there doesn't seem to be anyone out there who stocks them (midway is now completely sold out). Barnes only lists their solid. Jamison is making brass so really a nice source of bullets would be great. I am not opposed to casting GC bullets if someone has a source for molds. I'd like to use bullets that I can shoot at 2400 FPS. It looks like the .510 shooters are just scrounging them hear and there?

Thanks Brad

You might want to check Woodleigh's web or send an email to Woodleigh asking for a distributor list.
