Picked up this bit set at Menards and I think it is pretty good deal (especially when they run 11% off) for made in the USA bits. The bits are nicely machined. If you zoom in the photos, you can the fine machine lines. In the photo, the Masterforce bit is on the left and a Zephyr bit is on the right, for comparison. I've used the bits with my Snap-On ratcheting screwdriver but they do come with a magnetic holder with sockets on both the long and short arms. The holder is just a bent metal tube so it's nothing special but the magnets are actually surprisingly strong. The bits come in one of those vinyl holders. I happen to like this bit holder a lot. I typically use ammo boxes to store bits but these vinyl holders are nice for smaller quantities. You can buy similar holders for a couple bucks at Epstein's made by Ulmann Devices.
These bits are higher quality than the poorly machined bits included with the Masterforce magnetic screwdriver. Even though they are the same brand, they are not the same quality. For other bits at Menards...The Montana brand is also good and made in the USA.
