These are both 4 ball tests with different values but what do they tell us in practical terms?
Grease #1:
D-2266 = 0.32 mm
D-2596 weld point = 400
Grease #2"
D-2266 = 0.66 mm
D-2596 weld point = 800
Both of these are real greases and both are about twice as good (or bad) as the other in the opposite test. Which would be a "better" grease (ignoring all other factors)?
