Hello listers!

I'm looking for some advise on ordering blind rivets from A/C Spruce. I see 
the Cherry Max rivets that everyone talks about but also see commercial grade,

N, Q, and assortments of others.  So how do I go about deciding which are used

for what applications? Are the Cherry Max the strongest of the group and if 
so, are there ever any reasons for wanting a rivet of less strength? ie: 
weight, overkill....etc? My immediate application is to put a blind rivet in 
place of an AN470AD4-4 that I drilled out and now have a #19 hole...oops, but 
I'm hoping to get enough info for future blind riveting applications as well.

Thanks,
