May 8, 2012 at 16:05 comment added David E Speyer It is also worth noting that, if $b | p-1$, then Artin reciprocity for $K[t]/(t^b-f)$ can be expressed in terms of the Weil symbol as well: the relation is $(f,g)_x^{(p-1)/b} = \mathrm{Art}(L_f/K)_x(g)$. In particular, if $p$ is odd, $b$ is $2$, $g$ is irreducible and $x_1$, ..., $x_n \in X$ are the zeros of $g$, then the product $\prod_{x_i} (f,g)_{x_i}^{(p-1)/b}$ is "take $f$ modulo $g$ and raise it to the $(p^{\deg g}-1)/2$ power", an expression which should be familiar from proofs of quadratic reciprocity.
