Both MC and Visa post exchange rates on publicly accessible web sites. I include links a bunch of posts back. You might pick some days and compare.

Based on the dates I tried, MC is always better than Visa, although the spread varies from insignificant to not so insignificant. It's possible the dates I tried were not representative.
