But these are 5/16 bolts and I'm worried about drill power, plus the drill bit "walking" before it bites. I saw on a YouTube that a guy used a punch to minimize that. So off to harbor freight for that. And maybe some sacrificial drill bits b/c I don't want to ruin my good ones.

@User47@vmst.io You definitely want to use a punch to make a dimple before drilling metal. I do this in my silversmithing work, too.
