A hybrid design between a tangent and secant ogive is an option and I would bet the current issued M-80 and 855 use a hybrid design.
I don't see any mention of wanting to use a VLD in Tony's posts. :confused:
FWIW -- a year or two ago, I asked on the IAA (cartridge collectors) forum about M80 projectile shape, and was informed by one of the knowledgeable individuals that it has a secant ogive.
