What did you do in the reloading room today?

What's 9mm looking like these days economically? Pretty advantageous or negligible savings and more for loading custom rounds (low recoil competition, etc)

Got out of .45 and went 9mm only. Just got a carbine so might expect to go through my 9 much faster than I did with a Shield and work Glock.

It will always be cheaper to reload. The sooner you get started and the more you shoot, the sooner the tooling up costs will be in the rear view mirror. As you mentioned, you get to fine-tune loads, and if you're smart "ammo shortages" don't happen.

9mm will take longer to hit the break even point with reloading, but you'll hit it and everything from there on is gravy. Thick, cholesterol-riddled sausage gravy.
