If one loads the clip with all the rims in from of the preceding rim the clip can only be inserted one way. Some where I read a method of staggering the rims where the clip can be used without visibly verifying which is the top. Hrafknel

The bandoliers I have are loaded with the case heads of the end and center rounds against the base of the clip, and the intermediate ones raised.

I have shot quite a bit of .303 loaded as shown by Ed Harris, and it does indeed end up in the magazine in the proper orientation. Don't know exactly why, but as it goes down into the magazine, they move around.
