Silver Bullet Extreme Question

[12th Man]

I am looking in to purchasing the silver Bullet extreme. It says to use HSS #43 drill bit. Will this work for stock bsa axels? I have read the hole might be to big. Our rules require us to use the stock bsa axels.

It will work with stock axles

It works just fine with stock axles. My son and I just drilled his scout car with it and had no issues. Now keep in mind the diameter of the stock axles is not very consistent. If you end up with one that fits loose, just put a small drop of water in the axle hole. This causes the wood to swell and tightens up the hole without effecting the alignment.

Thank you. I will be ordering one then.

Thank you. I will be ordering one then.

If you plan on building several cars, have a few years of scout racing ahead of you, or are planning on racing leagues then it is worth every penny.

Thank you. I have 5 more scout cars to build and 4 more outlaw class to build.

I just ordered one. It came with a dril bit and the stock BSA axles fit in perfectly.
