Should i drill my rim out?

Pay careful attention to de-burring. You can use both once you have reamed her out, without any problem, or at least I never have had any. :)

yeah your right, its due to the little lockring on the presta ones which covers the hole
 
.

Gave her a good reaming this evening :D
Only had to open the hole out by about 1.5mm.
Schraeder now fits like a glove :D

Why don't you just get a presta valve for goodness sake? Why weaken a rim?

My thoughts entirely.

Serious cyclists don't use Schraeder valves FFS.

It's ok, i'm not s serious cyclist :roll: :LOL:
I use presta for road and schraeder for off road, always have, probably always will :cool:
