Unibit. If you have a local Harbor Freight, for the type and volume of holes that you'll be drilling, less expensive is better.

Unibit

Tricks of the trade: Figure out what size hole you need. Take a black magic marker and color the next step larger. Drill so that the color is the next one to go thru the pipe and stop.

If the pipe is thick, then the Unibit might not go deep enough - it's made for thinwall material.
