SR22 pilot reports being vectored behind a C210 for the ILS approach to runway 33 at fnl; then switched to a visual when the field is reported in sight. After a 360 degree turn the right the SR22 pilot is also cleared for the visual approach. During roll out after landing the SR22 pilot reports coming nose to nose with the C210 which had landed in the opposite direction. The C210 pilot was using the wrong CTAF.

Narrative:
While on an IFR flight plan denver approach did an excellent job of getting me into fnl with very severe weather. A C210 was ahead of me and vectored for the ILS approach 33. As he reported the airport insight denver cleared him for the visual and to switch frequencies. Denver gave me vectors to do a right 360 for spacing. I slowed down did a right 360. While doing the 360 I told approach that I was familiar with the area; had the airport in sight and VFR conditions. Approach released me; closed the flight plan and told me to squawk VFR. I switched over to 122.7 (unicom for fnl) I announced on final a few times. A caravan also going to fnl announced he was holding over boyd lake for me to land and he would land. I announced short final. I landed. Midway down the runway when I was slowing I met the C210 on the runway in opposite direction. I moved all the way to the left. And the centurion took the opposite side and exited the runway. I radioed the pilot with no response; I then tried again and the pilot answered and said he had the wrong frequency; he set 122.8.
