Everyone I knew went from the then Tri X to T Max 400 which was not slightly better but looked like 100 iso film in both grain and sharpness. Especially with Xtol and I'm sure other developers with ascorbic acid helping. Ilford as usually quirky pulled ahead with its Delta films and Fuji also put out some great films though some were not tab grain. Acros was though. My M6 usually had Neopan 1600 in it.
