I find a warded (no teeth on one o more sides) file most useful for this sort of adjustment.
For widening a rear sight, you probably want one with warded edges, so you don't accidentally deepen it as you widen it, and vice versa.
 
If you want to use power tools, get a Foredom flex shaft machine. Two big differences. First the motor is separate from the hand piece. You are holding a tool that weighs only a few ounces and is much smaller. You have far more control. Also it is controlled by a foot pedal. You can run it very slow if you need to. Yes, a Foredom is expensive. But when you wreck a $500 stock blank that you already have 100 hours of work into I can promise that you will wish that YOU HAD JUST USED THE RIGHT TOOL IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!
