Brain Dead question (Lyman H&I)

[abearir]

I dropped my (I) rod out of my (H) sizer die .311. One end is concave and the other flat. For the life of me I don't recall what is the "correct" end for the bullet base (checked)

Is the even a "correct" end? [smilie=b:[smilie=b:

The rounded edge goes down and the sharp edge goes up

The concave end does the check. The flat end is for the press to shove it with. I had to stop and think too.

One more reason I don't clean my dies out after using. Everything stays put even when I get extra clumsy!

You`re supposed to clean H&I Dies ??

I just warm the press up & change em , store em in empty med bottles as is ??

When I found a hammer in the fridg, I knew imadiately where to look for the mayo. Now if I can find the peanut butter I will probably know where the car keys are.
