 | | Spitzers or "tangential ogive" bullets are a special case of secant ogives where the angle joining the nose and the shank is zero. |
 | | Ogives of.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 can also be made, and for longer ogive, we recommend the ULD or 14-caliber secant with a 0.014 offset from tangent. |
 | | The smallest possible eliptical ogive is 1/2 or 0.5-E. That is a circle or ball, because the length of the nose is half the caliber, or the exact radius of the bullet. |
