You can make this fairly easily by combining either two concentric circles, or a peck drill operation in the center of the counterbore. You can then copy paste or use the replicator app to make more.

How do you make sure they are concentric? By eye? Or is there a snap feature to center off of the peck hole?

You can set the XY location for any object.

There are a handful of ways.
One could use the coordinates.
One use the center horizontal and center vertical tools.
One could create one of the shapes using offsetter v2 app, the resulting offset will be concentric.
One could lock the counterbore circle, then use the circle to holes app and that will create the through hole as a drill move, it will be concentric.

There are more. They become more and more complicated, but under certain circumstances could be faster than certain of the above methods…
