for instance i have always found that auto iso handles anything thrown at it on the 7000 but not that good on the 300 a fixed iso working better ,possibly i,m trying to push the camera/sensor further than it can reach .going to be a interesting winter though

Sure the 'lesser x' TCs are ok with primes. Its when you try to couple 2x Tcs with zooms you start to see the 'cracks'.

I had hoped to get a '160-400' range out of my 80-200AFS but it didnt come close to my 300 and 500 primes. Should have known better.
