Gloves for Clays and Upland?
For upland hunting I wear a pair of non insulated leather work gloves all through the winter. I also walk through the briars and thorns so they keep my hands from getting torn up. Never used gloves for casual shooting.

Brick Armory
For people who build or fix their own guns it is a convenient way to test fire.

Adjusting dies from 38spl to 357 mag. Is it a pain?
If they are standard 7/8x14 threads you can get a washer from Redding or RCBS that is the difference between the sizes if you are using the same bullet. Just add the washer. seperate seating dies for different bullets are a good idea if you like it.

Anyone reload .357?
If you want a full power load then use Win 296/H110. Just remember it likes to be loaded to just about max for the best results. Win 231 will give you a good load and you can feel a difference between starting and max loads with it. I use it with both jacketed and lead bullets. If you want a light target load then look at Trail Boss.

proper way to pin a collapsible stock
I am sure your opinion will be of great comfort when Bubba is making him his own. Make sure the pin does not go all the way through so it can not be pushed out the other side thus making it easily convertible back to a collapsable.

new savage axis not ejecting rounds?
Sounds like the ejector is not working properly then. Look and see if there is any crud in the groove and that it will move freely with just finger pressure.

Would you still reload if money is no object?
I would do both, buy tons of blasting ammo for certain guns and reload for my specific needs in others.

Considering reloading
Rcbs make a good press, I have a few, If you are loading for rifle I reccomend starting with a single stage and take your time. Even if you upgrade to a progressive there are always reasons for having a single stage. If you are doing pistol a Turret press to start if not a full progressive. You can still do it one at a time to learn it on them. But once you get going it takes forever reloading pistol single stage. Rifle has a few more steps involved.

What did Santa bring you (Or what did you get for Hannukah)?
Santa brought me a new spotting scope and the wife everything she needs to build her own AR with, and optics. I won't even get into how spoiled the little cretons were. Glad this only happens once a year.

Reloading Books And Classes
Lyman 49 is a great choice, for a second I would use Speer 14 if pistol is your thing or Sierra 5 if you are loading rifle. The Lee is great if you are using Lee equipment, it is very specific to their stuff, but I find their load data lacking for my needs. As you go you will get lots of manuals, I have 8 now. You can never have too many for comparison.

Expendables 2
LOL My impression from the previews was old Hollywood action stars trying to be young again. But after seeing it I was surprised at how good it was. And yes , my wife could kick your ass and mine. She just wanted to see it because Jason Statham was in it and there were guns.
