The Wheeler 100-Piece Professional Screwdriver Set is Wheeler's largest bit assortment, built for gunsmithing at the bench. It covers the fasteners you run into on rifles, pistols, shotguns, scope mounts and accessories, all in one molded case.
The flat bits are hollow ground, so the sides stay parallel and the bit sits fully in the screw slot. A standard tapered screwdriver tends to cam out and chew up the slot on a firearm screw. Hollow-ground bits are the standard for gunsmithing for that reason.
What's in the set:
Finish: the bits are coated in black phosphate for corrosion resistance.
Good for: stock and action screws, grip screws, sight and scope mounts, trigger guards, and general maintenance on anything in the safe.
Tip: test-fit a few flat bits and use the widest, thickest one that fills the screw slot completely. A snug fit spreads the force across the whole slot and keeps you from marring the screw head. For optic screws, follow up with a torque driver.
