It took me about 3200 rounds of .45 ACP to pay off my initial purchase of a 550 and accessories (tumbler, scale, calipers, puller, etc.)

Reloading equipment has gone up some since then, but not as much as loaded ammo has, so I suspect the breakeven point should be even lower now. As noted, if you load more "exotic" calibers it will come faster, too. I saw .45 Colt and .44 Mag selling for 80 cents per round retail last week, and I can load them for around 12 cents.
