If you have two records with similar priority, there is no set logic on which records will be used first by the MTA. Either of them can be used.

Each MX record contains a priority and a host name. To give priority use numbers:
Code:
@ 3600 IN MX 10 mx1.example.com. @ 3600 IN MX 20 mx1.example.com.
