That is what I have always done. If for example I need a perfect 1" hole, I will bore to either just over 5/8" or 3/4" diameter (depending on OD of part as well) and then use either a 5/8" or 3/4" boring bar to take it to size.
I generally don't use much over 7/8" drill bits anyways, I prefer to take out as much metal with drill bits up to around the 5/8"-7/8" and over that boring comes into play.
