What ship would be best for the job? I was thinking a Stealth Bomber, but drones might make that plan end poorly very quickly. The Covert Ops cloak seems invaluable, however. A t3 would be way out of my price range, I can fly a Pilgrim but I'm not sure how I'd fit one and it'd be pretty expensive (but I could still afford to lose one), if possible I'd like to 'learn the ropes' of moving around 0.0 in something less expensive.

Pilgrim would be ideal. With with 1600 plate, cap booster, tracking disruptors, etc. Like this, except without faction :p.

Use a bomber - Pilgrim is not worth it.

Also, pick your targets wisely. It is quite likely that someone ratting in 0.0 has friends, though not always (I ratted in syndicate a bit solo, but, I also know better than to do it with someone else in local, especially someone else dscan can't see).
You would do better if you could convince a friend in a falcon to come along, it would provide invaluable GTFO ability.
but yeah, pilgrim is basically the best choice outside of t3.

Hm. Would it be worth dropping the second TD for a Web and fitting a 24km point? Seems like you might have a flew slip-aways with only a scram. (Although I suppose you should technically be decloaking right ontop of them)

A bomber type for the standard resist hole for local ratters (e.g. a hound in syndicate space, etc) will do the trick.
If you want to get really fancy, you can carry a bomb of a different type than your torps in order to strip the shield before going after the armor, but it's not really necessary.
Optimal strike time is to drop the bomb when the drones are orbiting idle or otherwise near the ratter, that way you wipe all the drones they have out (which is sometimes all the drones they have) before engaging at closer range with your point. I love gate camps with drones out for the same reason, especially camps where the victim is kind enough to bubble himself for me. ---

You need something with teeth. A pilgrim doesn't have close to enough dps to kill the ratter before his friends show up en force and blob you. Other than t3 and sb, there aren't a lot of good options.

I'd like to try out the SB, but I wasn't sure if it worked nowadays because the one guide I found was old. Something like this?
[Hound, Hound] Ballistic Control System II Nanofiber Internal Structure II Nanofiber Internal Structure II
Catalyzed Cold-Gas I Arcjet Thrusters Warp Disruptor II Small Capacitor Booster II, Cap Booster 75
'Arbalest' Siege Missile Launcher, Caldari Navy Bane Torpedo 'Arbalest' Siege Missile Launcher, Caldari Navy Bane Torpedo 'Arbalest' Siege Missile Launcher, Caldari Navy Bane Torpedo Bomb Launcher I, Electron Bomb Covert Ops Cloaking Device II
Small Polycarbon Engine Housing I Small Bay Loading Accelerator I

In my experience all the nanos aren't really necessary - you'll be faster than all your ratting targets, an mwd will let you get through 99% of camps just fine, and if they have light drones you'll be getting hit anyway.
I'm also a firm believe in having an MSE. It's the difference between getting a kill when you don't get all their drones and not, and in general makes flying the SB a lot more forgiving. So in terms of slots, I'd fit point mwd mse long point cloak first, then fill the rest up with as much gank as possible. (I include the bomb launcher in the 'as much gank as possible' category, I don't see it as essential.)
Happy hunting!
