Use a hole saw . They attach to your drill and cost about 5.00 - 8.00 at most hardware stores.

If u try to drill a hole using a large drill bit, and then file down the rest, it's probably going to take you a while. You can always use a rotary (dremel) tool to speed up that process, but the recommended method to make the hole is to use a hole saw. It is the quickest, easiest, and probably most effective (in my opinion) method.

I used my rotary tool with a cutting bit and just took my time. You should be able to cut out a pretty perfect hole as long as you don't let it get away from you.
