Any tip made of leather will have a propensity to mushroom. Even a soft Talisman.
How hard or how softly you typically hit will determine how much, or how little, that particular tip will mushroom.

What type of wood is the best for pool cues?
The type of wood you use in the construction of your cue will determine whether the cue will be softer hitting or harder hitting. For instance, Ebony and Cocobolo produce a similar hitting cue - hard rather than soft. Rosewood makes for a softer hitting cue. A cue made from Bocote will fall somewhere between.
Can you use a standard pool cue to break with?
Yes, and most people do so. However, if your cue has a medium or soft tip, as many cues do, this cushions the contact with the cue ball, and lowering the force of the break. In addition, it will lower the lifespan of the cue tip drastically. The advantage of using a dedicated break cue is to be able to use a very hard tip to get as much energy into the break as possible.
What is the best cue tip to get soft medium or hard?
Medium most likely. The soft tip is the best only if you know that you want very good cue ball control, using english, draw, and even masse. It is for the very experienced player and will not last very long, having to get replaced fairly often. If you use your cue for break shots, you should not have soft tip because full power transfer. A soft tip is usually given a dime tip. The medium tip will last and can give very good cue ball control. If using a medium tip, you now need to decide whether you want a dime or nickel shape. The dime shape keeps the tip in contact longer with the cue ball, allowing better cue ball control. The nickel shape allows the tip to simply last longer and is more forgiving. The cue with a medium tip can be used for breaking. The hard tip is for powerful shots, including a break shot, and will last a long time. The hard tip is most often used with a nickel tip and is common on house cues. The hard tip is forgiving but difficult for cue ball control for the average player.

No. The typical snooker cue tips are much smaller than the typical pool cue tips. So, you can fit a pool cue tip to a snooker cue, but not a snooker cue tip on a pool cue.
Pool stick what is the best tip?
The best tip depends upon the player skill and type of play. If the tip is 14mm there is no reason to go softer than a medium tip. Using a soft tip for additional cue ball control should be limited to a tip of 13mm or smaller. A hard tip must be used for a break cue, but will take away from control for normal play. A hard tip is often used on house cues simply so it lasts longer. The brand of cue tip becomes a preference based on play that is a result of many thousands of hours of playing pool. The brand is unimportant to the average player - the hardness, curvature, and condition are important.
