Steve the dovetail plate should have a couple of holes in it already, just place it where you want it and get a fine pointed texta or similar and make your holes.
I would start off with an smaller drill, and drill a pilot hole first, then go to the correct size you need for the screws, or bolts.
It is not a problem, and you wont do any damage to your scope, however if your not sure about it all, by all means get some help.
