Turbogold and Spax are excellent. No predrilling in softwood required.
Even 6*100mm will go straight in with an impact driver. Most trades

I'll take issue with that. They'll still split a floorboard - same as any
other without a clearance hole.
Other thing is if you use these without a clearance hole they won't clamp
up as tight.
