shootingsioux,
I bet some of the folks have better ways, but whenever I'm challenged by a "How do I do this delicate task?", I revert to handtools. The reciever has to be 100% inletted first.
I'd make all my marks on the stock for the hole's alignment (I like white pencils), check them twice, and then use an eggbeater hand drill. Go slow, keep the hole clear of cuttings and check your alignment often during the drilling.
I don't know how tight the holes should be, check the old stock if you can. Some parts are meant to bear recoil against the wood and some aren't.
