*note: I'm not talking about Amps over 10+ seconds. I normally use dual 30 g. Zipper coils or dual Agro or Flat .......s. All sub-ohm. So it doesn't really matter what the Amps drop off to after 15 seconds. I'm just talking about the hardest hitting battery based on the Max Pulse Amps.
I've learned that what the battery's stats say are rarely what it performs at. So I'm trying to see what everyone else uses for those hard hits.
Yesterday my hardest hitting batteries were different than they are today. I just got the yellow LG HE4 35A - 18650 and an authentic Vamped 65A 26650. I say authentic because I was ignorant when I started out and bought 3 Vamped batteries from Amazon & eBay, all fake. But they do perform well, just not great. Vamped batteries are also the shortest 26650s I've found, which is crucial for several of my 26650 mods. Half my batteries don't fit my 26650 mods because they're too long. Of course, in my authentic 26650 mods (Pegasus B&M, Kingpin & Fat Snow Wolf, any 26650 battery will fit).
Before those, my hardest hitting were my authentic Sony VTC4 30A- 18650 and the green Efest 50A 4200mAh - 26650. Not sure why that green Efest hits harder than my purple Efest 64A 3500mAh or my red Efest 60 or 64A(depending on the site) 3500mAh. Maybe they're fakes, who knows.

26650
These are just the ones I have. Let me know if you have one that will out hit any of these.
