So i bought a few "good" boxes of ammo for my 30-06; winchester ballistic silvertip 150gr and hornady superformance 150gr sst. I re-zeroed my scope after adjusting the rings with a mix of Wolf 147gr and winchester super-x 180gr, both of which seemed to shoot/group about the same and i was all over the bullseye before seeing what the better ammo was all about and what a shock! first shot was the hornady was 7 INCHES high, second shot same. had to bring the scope wayyyy down and finally found a good group. shot 10 rds and switched to the winchester ST and they were about 2 inches HIGHER than the hornady's. This was at 100yds, just blew my mind that there could be that big of a difference between loads and wanted to see if others had the same type of experiences. BTW, everything i shot was grouping well but out of all of them I think the hornady's did the best with a few touching at 100yds, and the price is a bit better than the silvertips.
