Ring gear is hardened and the carbide bits cost more than I want to spend. I don't need/use carbide bits in the gunsmithing I do (competitve rifles mostly), the metal I work is not that hard. If I had carbide tooling, I would've have tried it already - I know of a few from Sav Central who've done it and it seems to fix the prob.
