Found center
Spot drill
Drilled thru with a .125 drill
Drilled thru with a .250 drill
Drilled thru with a .3125 end mill
I wont know for sure until i try the part at work but i slid some ground stock thru the holes and put a square up to the stock and it looks one heck of alot closer than my first try/failure
Thanks for the suggestions folks. Things like this are second nature to you guys but still very complicated to me. Thanks for your patiance.

You will have good results with a drill size just under finish diameter as well and if you use a stub drill, alot of times center drill can be done away with, so you will have a stub drill and a boring endmill.
