My best Tri-x negatives were rated about 200, then pulled development in Xtol 1:2. This gave very good skin-tones and tonality combined with Ilford MG warmtone FB paper, printed on a rather high filter setting. I had equally good (or better?) results on Forte polygrade warmtone. The film was Tri-x 400 in 120 size.(posted 8807 days ago)By the way, the pulling was a mistake I did and it happened to work. I have used the procedure since then. I tried with 1:1 dilution as well, but I think I prefer 1:2 (but I'd have to do a comparative test some day to be sure).
I've also had interesting results recently with Tri-x 320, developed in HC-110. Not smooth, but very high accutance.
