I have seen this behavior in steel, but what do graphites look like?

Beg to disagree. Callaway's are a strange breed. The very bottom of
the hosel at the sole is a little smaller diameter than the rest of
the hosel bore. Notice that all the Callaway tips are slit . . . three
crossways cuts . . . across the bottom of the tip. The tips are shoved
into the hosel and a plastic plug is hammered in, expanding the slits
against the hosel wall. Sort of a built-in shim. The process can be
matched by slitting a tip with a dremel tool, or the bottom of the
hosel can be bored out and a standard .370" tip shaft can be inserted.
In either case, the shafts are not taper tip.

The Callaways are taper tip.
I also have the same question for the Ping I/3 irons....... as I haven't
re-shafted any of these till now.

I haven't worked with the Callaway X 16 irons and wanted to verify that
these are taper tip.
TIA,
