Haven't had to reload yet. Surplus Swiss ammo is still available for a reasonable price and I doubt I could improve the accuracy over the Swiss surplus by reloading! If you do buy ammo for it so you can reuse the cases, buy the PPU ammo. The Swiss surplus ammo uses Berdan primers. You can reload them but you'll either need to buy Berdan primers or modify the case to accept Boxer primers.

thanks for the tip hawk, yea was doing some looking on youtube about reloading and saw that. i found some GP11 at midway the other day and just grabbed some so i'd have something to shoot when the rifle showed up. they didn't have the 480 rounds available so just went with some of the 60's. do you know any good places for the GP11 right now?

amazon is also selling the stipper clips https://www.amazon.com/SCHMIDT-POLYM.../dp/B01EGRZSLS

I have started reloading the GP11 brass but for sometime the project has been held up waiting for a response from the trimmer manufacturer to recut my trimmer for K31 Redding sized brass. They say they will do it on their website but they never answer their messages, so at some point when I get more time I will have to figure out what to do.

Yes I have the appropriate berdan primers and use the RCBS berdan deprimer tool to pop out the old primers. I have already reloaded Hirtenberger 7.62 berdan brass successfully. It's not hard to do.

A shipment of GP11 came into the country a year ago. It is gradually getting bought up. No guarantee there will be more. Last I heard stocks have dwindled so low in Switzerland that RUAG put GP11 back into production(went out of production in 1994).
