I think that anyone who reloads to save money or assemble a bunch of ammo to shoot more, is missing a lot. Besides all the reasons mentioned above (it's fun, therapy, custom loading for my parrticular gun), I can do it any day, rain or shine; much more than I can shoot. I live in an area where shooting is done 10 miles up hill and the last 3 miles is dirt road (logging roads). It rains a lot here and I don't own a 4 wheel drive, so I wait a day or two after it rains to go shoot. Anyway, liking handloading/load development/experimentation, I often have more handloads than I can shoot!
