Agreed. I can't keep up re-loading with the amount that I'd like to shoot.

I saw one at the gun show this weekend. Not sure how much they were asking but you could always go there and start looking.
Fortunate for me Dad had a couple presses he could spare so my start up costs were minimal.

if i was always shooting top ammo it might save a few pennies, but I shoot cheap factory loads (winchester etc) for target parctice.

I did the math for myself since I had minimal start up cost (thanks to Dad). To re-load 380, I'd save about half. It is less than that now that the cost came down but I still do it for the enjoyment.

I am quite a bit more accurate with my reloads versus factory.
