Well, I have to budget my income and I'm not looking for a second job (or actually any job - I'm retired). My wife and I shoot every weekend and use 200 rounds of 9mm each per weekend. Started reloading about 1 1/2 years ago. Bought Lee progressive press and dies. After about 4500 rounds I had paid the cost of equipment. Now the lower cost of reloading means we don't have to budget as much money per month for our shooting. Shooting or "matches" against each other for score, 200 rounds is plenty of shooting every Saturday. Since I wouldn't be spending time doing other things (not in the budget) the lower shooting budget does save us money. YMMV
