Aren,

We've done a .2505 - .2510 ream for the past few years. We have never had an issue, most of the time we've been able to slide in and out with little force. We used to just drill the hole but switched to a drill + reamer to get a nicer fit.

We use the S4 with a ball bearing so there is very little drag.
