Is it better to reforge gear to get to hit/expertise cap (I know you have to either way) or to gear for it. For example. I have an axe with hit rating on it, or a fist weapon with haste instead. But would it be better to use the axe for the hit rating, or use the fist weapon and reforge to have hit rating on it.

If a weapon already has +hit on it, you can't reforge more +hit onto it... if I understand you correctly.
Didn't read it correctly. *ahem* If you're reforge +hit onto the fist weapon, you'll only get 40% (or however it works out) of the stat you reforge as +hit... so if you can use the fist with the reforge and still be hit capped, go for it... however, if not... I wouldn't bother.

I am just wondering if it is a DPS stat gain by reforging a weaker stat to hit. Yes I will end up hit capped. I just want to know if its a DPS gain to reforge for hit or gear for it.

im pretty sure you can do either but usually you reforge for hit and gem for agi and mastery

Pre-Reforging:
Lightning Whelk Axe
86 Hit =
Good
86 Crit = Blah
Fist of Pained Senses
86 Haste = Blah
86 Crit = Blah
Post-Reforging:
Lightning Whelk Axe
86 Hit =
Good
52 Crit = Blah
34 Exp/Mas =
Good
Fist of Pained Senses
52 Haste = Blah
86 Crit = Blah
34 Hit =
Good
So you can reforge for 2 Good stats on 1 item, or reforge for 1 Good stat on 1 item. It's all about efficiency.
Edit: Of course this isn't
always
the case, but since you're linking blues, I don't think you're quite into that realm yet.
