[QUOTE="blackco, post: 642086, member: 7356"] If you have read this far you are interested in getting stuck screws and stuff out...I have a tool from snap-on that has been a God send to me. I wish I knew the name but it has a handle with an in-line 3/8 drive on it. You put a 3/8 driver bit on, put it on the part you need to loosen and hit it with a hammer, which causes it to turn about 1/8-1/4 turn. That way the max twist is at the exact time of max pressure/friction. It has loosened several stuck screws that were starting to strip for me. Every time I have a screw on a scope ring or base that feels like it is about to strip out I just get my tool and get it started, then it turns out fine with a screw driver. Hope this is helpful.
