So do you always shoot TMAX 400 at 320?

What about TMAX 100?. I gave the same lab a roll of 120 TMAX 100 along with
that test and it was fine.

Could you explain the curve stuff to a novice?

IMO (and i know others differ) aikod Tri x has a real speed in most
developers
of 400.
T Max 400 IMO opinion and experience and the shooters I know in town has a
real
speed of 320.
A half stop slower than tri x of real speed.

Also the curve shapes different and could be part of the issue.
Tri x has a higher toe than T. Max which drops off (down) quicker.
