Default RE: How are you drilling your props

I prefer to use different sized round tapered files. I do own a 5/16" reamer from my OS four stroke days. Twist the round file backwards. Works for wood and FRP props. Takes a little longer but guarantees the hole is centered. Swap sides of the prop because yes the file is tapered. Don't over do it or the hole will be too large. This process is slow and therefore accurate.
