You seem to be forgetting the mighty mûmak. Its size and weight would make it a lot stronger than an ent. If a mûmak could somehow throw a rock, I guess it would throw further than the ent and the dragon.

Not as far as a dragon. Those things are ginormous.

As a mighty tree can crumble stone and twist metal over many years, the Ents possess such, great strength they can do it in seconds. Just by gripping stone they can chew through it like bread crust. That is incredibly powerful.

Another incredible feat was resisting the waters of the River Isen when they tore down the dam. A couple of feet of fast moving water can sweep a car off the road and they were able to stand against the volume of water of a mighty river released in an instant. That is mind boggling strength.

Silmaril Ungoliant

I think people are forgetting Ungoliant here. She was someone who scared even Morgoth; and when he refused to hand the Silmarils over to her, overpowered him. He only escaped from her with the help of the Balrogs.
