but if it came down to spending a few bucks more per box and spending more time at the range, vs saving a few bucks and spending time reloading instead of being at the range I'm not sure I can see the benefits.
Unless your time is so tight that you can't make the odd hour in an evening .... you should be able to manage the time aspect ...... plus too there is the ability you'd have to produce the ideal ammo for your gun/purpose.

It has to be viewed IMO as a long term proposition, and unless you are as ancient as me I'll assume your ''payback time'' will be plenty! I also do not feel it is all entirely about savings - well not only.

The independence is a biggie such that if you have a stock of consumables and brass, you can in essence get to it any old time if you run low or supplies are difficult.
