Protein - Bang for Buck

As I'm aware of internet wholesale protein 'depots' and 'stores' but also see very many mixed reviews about their products. I currently absolutely LOVE syntha-6, i believe it's hands-down the best tasting protein I've ever had. But we all know BSN sells fairly pricey supplies for their weight.
Looking for anybody who knows what type of protein is sufficient taste and good for weight gaining, I've done some research, and am thinking about either Mutant Mass, and Optimum nutrition. (Trying to stay away from walmart brands) as i plan to take atleast 2-3 scoops daily, maybe twice a day. thanks for any info!

1 scoop is only 35g ? Syntha is around 45g a scoop and i currently take 2 - 2 1/2 scoops per mix, with like 600-700ml of milk. usually my bedtime snack

In my experience, Optimum has always had good products for relatively reasonable prices.
By the way, a "scoop" can mean a lot of things. Not all scoops are the same size, and not all brands consider the same amount of protein a "serving." If you are using 2 1/2 scoops @ 45 gm a scoop plus over 1/2 liter of milk in one serving, you are wasting quit a bit. You won't utilize anywhere near all of that. I'm pretty big, and about 70 gm protein per serving is all I need.
