Reloading your ammo can be fun and save you some money in the long run but you have to know what your doing. The initial set up is not cheap either. If you plan on reloading for a lifetime then it is worth it, I reload all of my .45 ammo and I have fun tweaking with different grain ratios, powder concentrations, etc. I had a lot of misfires when I first started due to lack of expierence.
