I've shot Mk262, the 5.56 77 TMK, and 5.56 69 TMK against each other out to 900. The 69 is really quite something, and a bit of a head-scratcher.

Several years ago I did work up to a maximum load of n540 and 69gr SMK. 10 shot string at 1.8" and average velocity 2900 fps. This is the only time that I can report a field velocity similar to a published velocity.
Sounds like I need to find that recipe again.
That is a really good price on the BH 77 gr. I have shot a bunch of the new black hills 77 gr and the remanufactured BH 77 gr. The load is pretty hot, but very consistent and accurate. I tried the 69 gr. in my SPR and it was noticeably less accurate than the 77gr. Maybe I need to try another batch of the 69 gr. to see if I get a better result
Your barrel may just not like 69s. 77s have generally been better for us over the broad spectrum of guns.
Nice.
Most of our guns agree with each other on ammo choice. But every once in a while a barrel will flat disagree with a particular load with no good reason. Very strange. On average you won't go wrong with black hills. Their balance of speed and accuracy is amazing. Truly outstanding.
A few of my guns preferred the OTM vs the tipped match kings. So don't feel cheated buying the classic OTM type ammo.

Not sure if this is an accurate comparison or not, just throwing it out there...SGAmmo has this for $335.00:
