Stripped lugnut

Man, im hurting the hell out of my hands trying to chisel this thing off with a steel chisel. Im about halfway through and im starting to hit the stud so I stopped. Anyone got some tricks or tips on how to remove this, this thing is rounded off bad and now its got a big cut going through it from the chisel. Need some advise please, thanks.
