A B S T R A C T A rock boring assembly for producing a straight hole for use in a drill string above a pilot boring bit of predetermined diameter smaller than the desired final hole size. The boring assembly comprises a small conical boring bit and a larger Conical boring bit, the conical boring bits mounted on lower and upper ends of an elongated spacer, respectively, and the major effective cutting diameters of each of the conical boring bits being at least 10% greater than the minor effective cutting diameter of the respective bit. The spacer has a cross-section resistant to bending and spaces the conical boring bits apart a distance at least 5 times the major cutting diameter of the small conical boring bit, thereby spacing the pivot points provided by the two conical boring bits to limit bodily angular deflection of the assembly and providing a substantial moment arm to resist lateral forces applied to the assembly by the pilot bit and drill string. The spacing between the conical bits is loss than about 20 times the major cutting diameter of the lower conical boring bit to enable the spacer to act as a bend-resistant beam to resist angular deflection of the axis of either of the conical boring bits relative to the other when it receives uneven lateral force due to non-uniformity of cutting conditions about the circumference or the bit. Advantageously the boring bits also are self-advancing and feature skewed rollers.
