Paul,
If you look again you will see that there was no G82 used in the Reaming it was used in the Spot operation, no dwell was used, since P had no value I am assuming it is ignored.
My thinking on the pecking was simply mimicking how I did manual reaming so it seemed appropriate at the time.
In retrospect, pecking would seem to offer no benefit, however, it did not seem to cost anything but some extra time, since they turned out very well.
Thanks for the formula for the hole size and advice, it is noted.
