IMHO any round that is center fire is an advantage to reload. The cost of brass in 7.62X39--7.62X54 is the limiting factor there for me. All others I shoot are fair game for me however. There is a certain satisfaction to shooting accurate handloads and doing it for cheaper than the factory. I recently got 2K once fired brass and 700 premium assorted bullets from a fellow reloader who gave up on reloading 223 ammo. He said he would rather get his teeth pulled than reload 223. Try to load 25 ACP if you want to talk a problem to deal with ( big fingers small parts). Good for me getting his stash for a reasonable cost. 223 is one of the first rifle rounds that I set up to reload for myself 30+ years ago after learning and using my grandfathers stuff for 10-12 years first. YMMV
