Many of the guys on here will suggest not to load 9mm because of the small savings margin. I say go for it! It's not all about the cost, but rather the experience. It's the ability to go to the range with YOUR handloads. Its about knowing that your bullets will go "bang" every time. It's about a higher quality ammo than factory rounds.

Also consider the variety of loads you can make. You could make a light plinking load, or a speedy SD round. Its entirely up to your imagination attempting to match a gun to the perfect combination of bullet, powder, and primer.

If I may get nostalgic and say it truly is a beautiful thing.
