So i got a small ball pein steel pin/ rollpin punchsets. I need to add some dowel rod for stuck case. .... Im looking for a screwdriver set for gunsmithing my i can spend a100 also anything else people might think to add its a 30minute drive to range

Get a Chapman driver set.
Either that or you can get a GRACE wood handled screwdriver set.
Whatever you do, stay away from that cheap Wheeler garbage.
The Grace screwdrivers are nice, but they don't offer the same range of tip sizes as you can get in the Chapman bits.
I love my Grace drivers and they have their place, but my Chapman driver set is one of my most favorite tools. I don't know how I ever lived without it.

I would add a soft faced hammer.  Vaco screwdrivers with interchangeable bits have impressed me in the past.

VACO made great screwdrivers,  but you don't really want to go using regular tape ground screwdrivers on square cut gun screw slots.
That's why gun screwdrivers ( like the Grace or Chapman ) have parallel ground tips.
