    Now I'm confused!

    My wiring in the first picture is
    red and black hot leg go into their respective slots into the breaker
    line in green ground goes to ground bus
    white neutral goes to neutral bus
    curly wire from gfci goes into neutral bus.

    This set up with nothing on the load side still trips the breaker immediately.
    Going to buy another breaker (at 100 bucks a pop ouch) and see if the problem continues.

    If you didn't have the neutral from the dryer plug to the GFCI breaker can, you may have damaged the breaker, or you got a defective breaker.
    Homey Depot has a no return policy on electrical parts.
