If you plan on shooting much as a regular fun activity then anything that starts with a ".4" really justifies getting into doing your own reloading. The reduction in cost, as illustrated in one of the posts above, makes doing the math quick and simple.
A modest reloading setup that stores away in a medium size storage tote will run you around $200 to $250. And given the $40/50 vs $11/50 example from above it doesn't take a lot of shooting before you paid for the reloading gear and the savings from then on are gravvy.
Top that off with the abilty to load to whatever power factor suits your needs that vary from full "wrist wreckers" down to mouse fart loads that can be used to introduce the most extreme gun shy newbie and you have a win-win justification for getting into reloading sooner rather than later.
