I have swaged the edge of several ball detents when making custom socket rails. A slightly oversized pin punch worked well on flat stock. May need to machine a matching radius for proper hold on the round stock. For what it's worth I never bored the holes I simply drilled them with a cordless drill inserted spring then detent ball (BB) and swaged with a proper sized pin punch
