Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Gunsmithing Scope ring driver set

Hey everyone,

Im a kitchen table dealer and have been getting in some abused scope screws. I've had good luck using some of my long handled screw drivers but have some bad ones. I hear good things about the Chapman screwdriver sets. Is there a certain brand or tool to look out for especially for the stripped scope. I've had to drill some out in the past but any other ideas ?

Thanks

Brownells Magna Tip sets are very good...love mine. I did add some Milwaukie Torx tips to it.

Chapman bits are very brittle so that they will break before they booger up a screw. If you buy a Chapman set, you might want to order an extra selection of the bits that you're likely to use most often.

Brownells Magna Tips are less likely to break.

Boogered up screws are best handled by putting the correct bit into a drill press or mill chuck so that you can put downward pressure on the screw while you turn the chuck by hand. A little heat via a soldering iron will help if the screws have locking compound or nail polish on them.

I use a Grace driver and bit set.
