Tyres to suit for a bush set and I would probably trailer in trailer out.
The Baja Claw or the Simex Centipede Extreme Tracker. These tyres would be going on a GQ doing Med, Hard, Extreme type tracks found in most 4WD parks around QLD. OR should I stick with a good old set of BFG Muddies? Price $300 to $400 per tyre.

Is there any differance in tyre performance or ability out in the scrub between the Baja Claw and the Baja Claw Radial?

As a second/bush set I'd be looking for a Bias tyre. A lot more damage resistant, far more robust in their carcass and generally a lot more aggressive. They are also more malleable through the tread section than a steel belted radial.
I personally like the Mickey T Bias Claw, but the centipede is a good tyre for a lot of people aswell. All comes down to driving style.
Difference between the Bias tyres, Bias Claw and Radial Claw....
