45/70 Cartridge Storage
Does it matter if the loaded cartridges are stored nose up or nose down? They are greasers with no grease ring showing. Received a wooden cartridge holder box and the holes are too small for upright storage with the caliber label on the top showing. Probably a silly question ...

Yes. Bullet down. Lots of room to rattle around if there's enough space for the rim to go down first.
