Make believe the below pic is the Retainer Ring.
Center Punch and then drill through the ring at a spot between 2 of the Pin Wrench Grooves; like where the Red X is.
If that does not split the ring completely get something in the hole like a Punch or Chisel and split it. That should allow the ring to spread a little and you should still be able to use the Special Pin Wrench to unscrew the Ring.
If you bugger the threads on the hub a little; ounce the Hub is off you can use a small Triangular File and clean the Threads up.
If you Drill all the way through the Ring you will need a new Ring and maybe the Circular stamped Metal Locking ring. You Should not be able to drill into the actual Bearing as it is extremely hard.
