I have also noticed that Squadron Leader is great in the Stanwell Calabash but only OK in the Rhodesian, while with Robert McConnell's Oriental the opposite is true. Is this fairly standard?

Not uncommon at all. You'll find it's actually pretty common if you talk to the RFOGs, (REALLY fluckin old guys), that have been smoking pipes since Christ was a mess cook. Some pipes just pick the tobacco they like, and it's fighting mother nature to try and change it.
