The UPLAND shells as introduced in 1971 had a 6-point sealed crimp, the same as the compression formed Super-X and Super-Speed.

In the 1983 Winchester ammunition catalog they state that the UPLAND shells now have the 8-point AA style crimp for easier reloading. So, they would be in this style box --

The Xpert Box --

and of course the 16-gauge Dove & Quails for a few years --
