Gunner, are you drilling the holes & countersinks
in a drill press or your mill? I prefer using my bridgeport to make holes like this. Easy to use an endmill to produce a sharp edge with flat bottom and the quill stop for depth. Reduces tearing of the wood fibers. In addition, you have the XY on the table to set the spacing of the holes perfectly.
