I just got a $50 spot bonus for doing something at work. It is one of those amex gift cards. I wanted to spend it at the market hall show this weekend but most vendors dont take (or dont take kindly) to credit cards. Any suggestions?

Looking for ideas for something to go with one of the following...

Rem 597 22LR
Rem 700 .270 BDL
Mosin M91
Glock 17
Keltec P3AT


Edit: Also soon to be building an AR15, buying a lower this weekend at the show.

Take $50 out of the bank, and use the gift card for groceries.

Now I have to figure out what else I need to start reloading (other than the data book)

I was tought how to reload 10 years ago one night on one of these hand presses but have decided to get into reloading just now. The price of ammo at academy made me sad. :cryin
