If there's a distinction between the 2, I'd say the point of departure is when a person is hands-on with every step of the process. Some people are one or the other, a lot of people are both. I'll load up some stuff just to have cheap ammo to let other people to blaze away. MIxed brass, bulk generic bullets @ $6/lb...scooped and weighed like nails, whatever extra primers I have and whatever powder I don't like. If I'm loading stuff for me to shoot, I'm a lot more picky about what I use and how I go about it.
