An ogive is the radius of the point of the bullet expressed in calibers (for example, a .308 diameter bullet with a 3 caliber ogive would be 3X .308 = .924 inches so you take your radius .924 inches at a right angle to the axis of the bullet starting at the end of the straight bearing surface and arching forward to the center line).
