Bds I’m not in either group although I enjoy reloading a bit more than shooting right now. In reality, I go back and forth.
The reality is I enjoy both so it’s worth it to me. Others like Jeb_Stuart here have made it clear that they don’t find it worth it to reload 9mm so that good too.
OP needs to decide if it’s worth it to them. And before they do that they have to figure out what’s important to them and what’s not. They also need to consider things that may change.
Maybe we should setup a sticky of people willing to meet with others who may be interested in re/hand loading. This way someone can see how the processes are done and what’s involved before they decide if they want to invest the time and money buying gear. I know I would to have loved to have checked out someone’s setup. Thankfully I had a coworker who wasn’t doing much at the time, give me some bullets and powder. So it just pushed me along a little faster.
I know I’d also love to meet others who reload locally. Now getting to the range will help with meeting people but like everything I just have to figure the time!
