Stinger and Lontrel are the same thing with different labels intended for different markets - Lontrel is mostly for the landscapers where Stinger is marketed for ag use. Other brands exist with different amounts of concentration.
It doesn't take much active ingredient in the tank mix to work.
There are several products with the same active ingredient: clopyralid.
I used a mix of Lontrel and 2,4D on and area that had a lot of thistle and other nuisance weeds and it did a good job. You never get it all on the first try, but another application maybe a year later should get most of the stragglers. Keeping it mowed thereafter so it can't build nutrients in the roots or go to seed pretty much wipes it out over time, although I wouldn't be surprised to see some try to come back from old dormant roots.

PS. - Forgot to mention that you need to check to see if the herbicides are recommended for grazing or crop land or what the waiting period is for them.
