Newbie here: Reload 9mm or Factory Buy

[Ganderite]

If it is just an economic issue, if your time is worth anything, it is cheaper to buy. My friends used to buy Wolf commercial reloads for around $9.00 a box. Handloading is not much cheaper than that.

But handloading allows to your try 3.0 to 4.5 gr of powder in 0.3 gr increments and discover the load that shoots groups half the size as the others.

And loading is an interesting hobby in its own right.

Once your reloading equipment is paid off it’s YOURS, that sums it up.

I reload for 4 caliber on my Dillon 550 and many more on my RCBS RC IV. Its the little nice to hqves that cost. digital scale vs beam powder dropper /trickler, tumbler etc. I hear the comment ," buy once cry once." Well if you even think you want to be able to run any real volume of loading start with a progressive.http://https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8vn_-VB6Kc these make a single stage much quicker though
