Dan, I have a 10 weight Axiom as well. Axioms are good for casting longer distances, but not as good at lifting. If there's a choice, wouldn't  use one to fight a tuna. 

I'm surprised sometimes how much more pumping is required for a larger striper. Even by TFO's specs they aren't rated well for lifting. (See uploaded image.)

The TiCr X, and even more so, the older TiCr at 10 weight have more lifting power. The new Axiom III looks like it's a better lifting rod than the original according 

to TFO's rating.
