    Hi have no fear get a Torx bit a T27 and tap it in, and it will dig in to the corners, then remove stripped fastener, remember now not a 25 or a 30 a 27.

    Now throw away or sharpen those stripped out allen wrenches and take care of them from now on. All the corners need to be sharp.

    It worked great after I figured out what the t27 was and that I had it on my bench. I was swapping to a choate I got, had to do a little dremel work to get it to fit. First time i've done any of this but it all works. Thanks for the help.
