I've seen some people that claim reloading isn't about the money, that they use new components for EVERY load, and that the only reason they do it is for the hand-tailored loads.
I am both, just depends. Some of my reloads cost me more than buying factory ammunition but I make them because they are simply better than any factory ammunition. Some I reload because nothing like it can be bought at any price and some I load for economy.
Reloading isn’t a “one size fits all” activity, lots of ways to “skin the cat” so to speak.
