That's a secondary concern for sure. When I got into loading, it was to save money on rifle ammunition. I loaded up on powder, primers, brass and bullets (molds, sizers, etc.) over years and now would be hard pressed to ever run out of anything I shoot regularly if I never bought another thing. There is a comfort in that when prices go crazy and scarcity removes stock from the marketplace.Do it so you'll always have ammo. Over buy your supplies so you're good for YEARS.
I'm cheap so I check my 30-06 in a 1903 rifle, .308 in an Israeli converted 98k. Pistol rounds in appropriate pistols.Another aspect of reloading for me is the ability to go out to my reloading shop (yes it's dedicated heated/cooled 8x10 building) make a pot of coffee turn on the radio concentrate on reloading and relax. I have a buddy that comes over and we talk drink coffee and load ammo. It's kind of a social event with a payoff. I also use a Rockchucker for rifle loads . One tool I would recommend especially for semi auto loads is a case gauge,I check every round for my semi autos because if it fits in the case gauge it will fit in our semi auto. I've been reloading for over 40 years and I'm still looking for that "perfect" load.
Bolt actions are not that picky put your ammo in a semi auto you might think differently if you shoot semis.I'm cheap so I check my 30-06 in a 1903 rifle, .308 in an Israeli converted 98k. Pistol rounds in appropriate pistols.
