Some of my drawings have many bolt holes that are the same diameter and they can be countersunk, effectively doubling the amount of text I have to show. How do I declutter my drawing by having one "dimension" or measurement pointing to 2 or more of the same circles (bolt holes)? 

 

The drawings are for in house references. They are not meant to be used outside of showing "the new guy" what to look for when running the CNC's.

The standard way of doing this is with a Hole Table...

If you use the Hole and Thread Note tool it will give you info on the hole and how many.

You probably also need to make sure you used the Hole tool and From Sketch (Multiple Holes) when you create the part in the design workspace.
