Curious as to what happens to the all copper bullet as far as whether it will break up or just mushroom back and go clear through like a slug

Both in my experience.

Velocity has to be very high for the petals to shed. I've had cases where the TSX acted like a fmj and just went through them like they weren't there. No blood or hair or anything.

Shoot the TTSX in as small a bullet as you can. It mushrooms with 99% weight retention. Lead bull8break up but this will go through a deer from front to back no problem. Itd one of the top 5 hunting bullets and you can eat right up to it.
