Cheaper overall though?

Only way you could make it cheaper right now would be to minimize your investment in equipment and plan to spend a lot of time at your bench. Beyond primers, powder, bullets, and cases is the equipment to make it efficient. I have a powered case trimmer, automatic powder throw, powered case prep center...all fairly expensive equipment and that's because prepping brass is the biggest time expense. If you are reloading for common cartridges that you plan to shoot a lot then you have to invest in the equipment which means you'll have to load a lot of rounds just to break even.
