Christmas reloading stuff what did ya get

:( I never get anything gun related, because I don't ask for anything gun related, because only I know what I want/need and they wouldn't have a clue as to where to look to get what I want/need. Take that back, my son ordered me a custom Stock butt cover for my 1876! :)

Christmas lists now are links to products or a shortcut to a midway wish list... making the exact thing you want easy increases your odds significantly
 
Merry Christmas,
Well I backed out of a CMP 1911 purchase when my uncle and a friend both got replacement slide on their respective CMP round 3 purchases. I used my 1911 budget and added a little more money and bought two prewar configuration Winchester 94's. I will be shooting these for the first time today.

Update: got an email this morning that I’m officially off. No one can say how coworker is doing or confirm if it’s actually covid - privacy regs - but the word did get out that he’s being treated, I got a text from him saying thanks for prayers and he’s stable, doing well, etc. No ventilators needed but he’s under observation. I like to think the prayers turned the tide. Thanks everyone for your support. That’s from his family as well. It’s going to be a hard week ahead but it looks like he is going to pull through.
 
I got a case (3300) of 9mm 135gr bullets coming. Recently bought 9mm and 45acp brass. Biggest is having my CZ 75b slide off for milling and an SRO optic. Late gift, I ordered Stephen Hunters book that came out this year.
 
Gifts to myself:
Yesterday picked up another brick of Federal 210's that I snagged on Bass Pro, as soon as I saw the email that they were at store to pick up I ran to the store to get them. Don't want those to walk off anywhere!

And today, with help from my Dad and Stepmom in the form of some Christmas cash, put in an order at Brunos to pick up an 8lber of N120 and an 8lber of N110. I haven't gotten to try the single lbers of each that I picked up a few weeks ago but the sale they're running was too good to pass up (sub $30/lb pre tax). And I doubt it will go to waste. 4 new powder types to play with in 357, 45-70 & 30-30 (N110, N120, 11FS & 2400) with my homemade cast will keep me busy all year.
 
I purchased some Redding dies - 38 Spec / 357Mag model #: 66184 - a gift for me from the kids. I have the same set in 44 Mag and I like it. However, The 357 set has 2 dies with a good amount of rust on them....and these are not cheap dies.

Talking to the retailer now (large online establishment that all (or at least most) of us know to determine next steps.

A pic of the rust on the threads, the bases of the 2 rusted ones have rust too.

Just a new seating die for .308. did get 2 new outdoor edge knives for skinning and boning deer. I'm not sure how much I'll like the boning knife, probably take a little getting used to, I'm used to using a filet knife. The skinning knife/blade works great! Got to use it tonight helping a buddy out.
 
I got a Frankford Platinum case prep center, 500 RMR 69gr, and 250 new cases if the postal service un-loses them. Took the kids to Basspro yesterday as they wanted to shop fishing gear, picked up 1k Winchester 41s and 2x pounds TAC to try out with the RMR bullets.
