What volume are you producing? If it’s less than say, 20-40 a day, you might want to consider an annular cutter like a Jancy slugger bit if you have a mill, pretty dam quick, and clean cut, just 2seconds with a Noga deburring tool and good to go. If you don’t have a mill, you could make a dedicated jig with a mag base drill.
