I don't think there is a universal best way. I have used edm, left hand drill bit, center cutting end mill. they all have worked but do cause a bit of anxiety. never tried the chemical method.

Drill a hole down the center with a much smaller diameter bit, then use a left hand bit to pull it out.
Give me land, lots of land, under starry skies above. Don't fence me in.

I've had good luck using this technique except I've always used an ez-out instead of the left-handed drill bit.

I have the proper carbide endmills that I use. I'm sure it ain't the only way.

Well its out but needs re-tapped. And of course I don't have the proper tap. What are the threads?

Brownells has a kit that you just drive the broken screw through the action if possible and shear off the threads.. Then retap for the screws supplied in the kit..
Easy....

I freehanded a small drill hole and then used a screw extractor. This was against the advice I received here. Guess I got lucky - it's better to be lucky than good sometimes

Sometimes you can use a prick punch to turn the broken screw stub out.
