It's been a while since I cut open some of the cheaper promo loads to check components, but in my experience, the quality is just not there. Fiber wads with no shot cup and very soft/low antimony content shot. Usually not the best for good patterns. Has this changed?

I am not sure that the value of your time is as important a factor as some would think. If your choice is to reload for an hour, or to work for an hour at your standard billing rate (Attorney, Accountant, Doctor at what, $150-450 hour?) then it doesn't make much sense. But this is not the choice that most reloaders are facing. Their choice is: "I have an hour of free time - will I reload, watch TV, or take a nap?" If you have free time that you will spend on a non income producing activity, then the cost of your time to reload (or to spend on any other hobby) appears irrelevant.
