With the current component prices, I've also noticed reloading some rounds doesn't make any sense. Particularly 5.56/.223 and 9mm range fodder. With prices hovering around $260/1000 for a case of 9mm ammo, I'll buy it instead of using up components that can go to other rounds.
For .223 Remington, if I just want FMJ range ammo for shooting in an AR carbine, buying factory makes sense when I look at the time it takes to load versus how much I actually use. But I reload more "specialized" ammo, say hollow points for my bolt action or AR match rifle. It helps that I have a bunch of primers and match bullets from my Highpower days.
I didn't originally plan to wander down the rabbit hole of reloading for my .308 Winchester hunting rifle. Which means I naturally did last spring, trying lots of different bullets and several powders. It still isn't a rifle I'll shoot a lot, and I could probably just as easily buy a couple boxes of factory ammo a year and call it good.
After all of that, it still makes a lot of sense to me to reload for my favorite pistol, a 1911 in .45 ACP. Since it runs happily on any kind of lead, plated or powder coated round nose 230 grain bullet and W231 powder, I can shoot it all I want at just over half the cost of factory hardball. And .38 Special is so simple to reload, I'll keep doing it too.
Of course there are the side trips I've made in the past with things like .260 Remington, .45-70 and .38 Super that were partially fueld by a "hey, I can reload those" attitude.
However, for a new shooter just looking for range fodder in 9mm or 5.56, I wouldn't recommend picking up reloading in our current environment.
