Nice set!

Semroc /eRockets has (or had) a BT-70 nose cone with the proper secant-ogive shape. Ah, here it is:

I used that in a standard BT-70 instead of BT-70H, needed just a little hand sanding for the shoulder.

Then, when you're ready for 2.6", Sandman makes a perfect secant-ogive in basswood. I haven't yet asked him for a 4".

eRockets now has a BT-4 scale cone too! <Edit> I see BarGeezer has posted the MX version - take out the MMT, and makes a nice minimum diameter for Apogee 10mm motors.
