I removed all the doubles and recalculated normals on both objects but it still does this?

It was a scale / normals problem : your objects scales were negative.

I applied rotations and scales ctrlA, then adjusted the normals (in edit mode ctrlN for both objects).

Then your model is ready for the boolean (difference) :

There is also a couple add-ons to fall back on if regular Boolean does not work. These are 'Booltool' and 'Booltron'
