MIP.

Expensive, but far and away the best.

Thanks for that. I am familiar with the bits you speak of. I have a set of standards. The bonus with these is, if your dealer is a good guy, they replace wore out bits for freeeeeee......

I am looking at the MIP drivers it seems like the overall durability is one of the best.
Thanks everyone for chiming IN...
