What are your tolerances? 0.625" is a standard size for bar stock so why do you need to turn it down. The finish and accuracy on a bore from a milling machine is comparable to a lathe.
Depending on the orientation of your cross holes and slots, with the correct fixturing you may be able to complete the parts in one operation on a mill.
