Default SP-600 Hex screw all snockered up

I'm tryin to get this thing recapped and I got one of the set screws
on the xtal switch all buggered up. It's made out of titanium or
kryptonite cause I been after it with a drill for about 2 days and I
barely dented it.

Two stops at Ace hardware on my way home for their best drills and I'm
stymied. I started with a 1/16 white, then the black hardened, and now
the cobalt. The cobalt is probaby the best, but they'res gotta be a
better solution.

So what do kind of a bit am I looking for?

Next screw I think I'll try some WD and a little heat.

regards,
Bob
