this versus bosch blue extreme, what's better for small cinderblocks and stucco?
Two great options. Get whichever is cheaper or readily available. Since both are engineered for concrete, which is way more taxing than cinder blocks or stucco, unless you are doing hundreds of holes, I doubt you'll see much difference. If you are doing hundreds of holes, that's a perfect opportunity to test both.
If I'm doing a lot of holes one after the other, I keep a cup of water with me to quench the bits and then dry them on my pants every other hole. Overheating is the main way these bits fail.
then again, if you're doing hundreds of holes, consider a small rotary hammer instead.
I've had good experience with both Bosch and milwaukee drills. Bosch has specialized in this area longer, but Milwaukee is investing heavily in r and d and modern manufacturing.

Thanks for the insight, I think I'll get whatever's got the sizes I'm looking for then
