Re: 9510 capacity
I can't help you on the corn question, but can give you our experience with a 9410 and 922R in wheat. In east central Kansas on dryland, we don't cut much 75 bushel wheat, but do cut some 60-65 and a lot of 40-50. We cut to get the heads and not run all the straw through and have HRW.
In nice clean dry 60+ wheat we can run 3.9-4.3 mph pretty steady. We don't have a grain cart so stop to unload every bin. We can average 7-9 acres per hour and on normal 10-12 hour days cut 70-90 acres. We usually have 700 +/- acres of wheat and our rule of thumb out there is to get it cut in no more than 10 days, with weather not always cooperating. A 9510 should beat that because of more walker capacity, but we seem to cut pretty much acre for acre with our neighbors who run 9500/9510s. They are running 924 or 925s. We did get a flex head last fall and got a 925, we could not keep it full cutting beans with a 922R.
Hope that helps and feel free to ask questions.
