Normal drill bit should be fine. I highly recommend using a demarcation box to couple the exterior line to the interior line at that point. I'm not a fan of having a solid run penetrate an exterior wall and run up onto the roof - it's always best to couple. You can seal the penetration where the line comes through the exterior wall with duct seal or caulk.
And MAKE SURE you have your antenna mast properly grounded. An earthing rod driven into the ground is the best way to do this.

This was a new construction install, I wanted to mount the enclosure before siding. Used some scrap pieces of plywood to get the appropriate spacing for the vinyl siding to continue behind the enclosure. I wrapped the plywood with metal sheathing for protection from water. The siding guys did an awesome job tying it all together.
