Blade Alignment to help Pronation when skating

Aligned as in re-drill holes in the boot to move the holder?  I'd rather not try drilling my boot and I'm not sure there is a shop anywhere near me I'd trust to do the work properly.  My other pair of skates have the heel post shimmed and it has helped.  Plan was to do the same with this new pair. 

Shimming a holder that may not be aligned properly is setting yourself up for a lot of extra work

Ok, so how do I check alignment?  This is a pretty standard issue for me, as I've had to shim (internal or external) all my skates to one degree or another.  I've just never been able to shim externally myself, since all past skates had rivets.  New skates have t bolts, so I can do the work myself.
