Good way to ruin a drill bit. You need to chuck it in a lathe or
at least a mill to clean out the socket farther. You could drill,
with a large enough drill, to the smaller diameter and that would
probably clear. Try Baum tools, schley tools or Hazet. Not cheap
but probably only 2x to 3x a regular deep socket and no mods needed.
