I have a few manuals but they are only good for rough starting points on powder charges. You have to do load development to find the bullet and powder charge your rifles/handgun likes.
As for the price, hand gun ammo won't be much cheaper but match grade rifle ammo will be. I started loading because I have an M1 Garand and it needs a specific load to keep from damaging the op rod. Then I picked up a .30-06 bolt rifle and match .30-06 is basically non existent.

How long did it take you to feel like you were very efficient with it? I'm under the assumption that load development takes quite a bit of time, and other tools to make sure the developed round is performing like you want. I've only ever browsed that sight, but I'll take your recommendation and start reading around.
