Best Value .30-06 SP bullet for reloading

For those of you who put up the occasional box of .30-06 reloads for deer hunting... if you were to buy bulk bullets today for that purpose, which would you choose?

I was thinking of your basic 150-grain PSP spitzer, though a 165 isn't out of the question either. Not interested in Nosler Partitions, Barnes X or other premium bullets, as I find that a Winchester silver tip or equivalent seems to do a dandy job on these little NC whitetails.

The load will probably involve either IMR 4895 or (more likely) IMR 4350. Not really interested in breaking new ground here.

Who's got a good price on what I'm looking for?
