Connecting Rods

It has been awhile since I put a stock rebuild together. I got a bunch of parts laying around, so I am putting together a 340. TRW stock replacement pistons, .030 over. Stock rods that were rebushed and honed with new rod bolts. But the holes were not drilled for piston pin oiling. The bushings have holes in them. Do they still drill the holes in the connecting rods, or is it not necessary ?

Some people do, some don't. I always liked doing it, but I honestly think it works alright either way.
