Would a pin vise work as well?

I find that it helps to "nibble" the pin through. By this I mean  push-release-push-release instead of pushing through in one smooth motion. When  pushing through in one motion, the pin can get a little off course if the tool  isn't PERFECTLY lined up and the pin PERFECTLY centered on the face of the  pusher. It can enlarge some part of the bushing. Pushing in tiny increments  resets the pin on the face of the pusher and pushes it straighter.
