When looking for lower tension strings, I've been told that a round core string will have less tension than hex core strings.

I just thought I'd toss that out.

You can jive to your music, Jeff, but it must jibe to your experience! :D

I used those, but went back to RW at some time. Still have a spare second set to sell (10$ plus shipment) that was only mounted for 30 min.
