Looking for recommendations for a basic set of hollow ground screwdrivers appropriate for gun work. These will be used for routine maintenance mostly but would like good quality. Thanks.

Try Chapman screwdrivers. They make a great basic set that includes a wratchet handle. Set #8900, $48.

I have one set of so called gunsmithing screw drivers.

I buy others sets and grind them to the need.

The Brownell's set is pretty useful, and replacement tips are not too expensive it you break one. Served me well for years.

Brownell's does have a very good selection.

Which ones would be replaced under warranty?

I think he meant Magna-Tip. https://www.brownells.com/guns...r-sets--prod417.aspx

Chapman bits are designed to break before they damage a screw slot. But they are only around $1.50 each to replace. I buy several of common sizes to keep as replacements. Then I regrind the broken ones as needed for special slots like Browning Auto 5 lock screws and thin slot European SXS screws.
