I bought a 44 mag this past year and bought 500 rounds, 500 bullets, and a Lee Loader, I already had primers and powder. I didn't feel like spending the money on a new tool head for my Dillon just for the dozen or so rounds I shoot when I take it out. I don't like being without ammo for any gun so I load this round as I go. I'll shoot up the factory stuff and then reload the cases. I take a little more time with the Lee than the instructions call for and I measure the powder drop and OAL but it's been more than sufficient loader. The round I hand load is much better than the factory stuff I bought. I get a kick out of being able to load on the go if need be. I later bought several more of these loaders in 9mm, 38, 45, 308, and 5.56 just in case of a SHTF scenario.
