What do you want to load for?
Well, the only rounds I shoot that can be reloaded are 9, .45, .225/5.56, and .308. And I guess 12ga counts too. If I had to choose just one, I would pick .308. I'm trying to get into long range precision shooting, and match grade ammo is expensive (I use Federal GMM). I also don't go through as much .308, so I figure that I would have enough time to replenish that.

Ideally, I think it would be great to reload it all, but if I understand it correctly, the cost savings are not that great, especially for the handgun ammo. Then again, I'm stupid to reloading. I get the basic concept of what needs to be done, but there is a lot that I don't know.
