I have loaded shotshells for 35+ years, but find I am shooting less each year. The rabbits and quail are way down in numbers and land access gets harder each year, so I am hunting small game less. If I did not already have the equipment, I would not bother at all. I will say that I cannot find good 16 gauge ammo on a regular basis, so I do reload that just to have a reliable supply. After I got my 16 gauge loader though, I found B&P shells at a good price online, so I would not even have to load them if I bought a flat at a time.
