I could, conceivably, cast some bullets

And how will you melt it? Assuming you would.
Tungsten has a melting point of 3400°C.

I would cast lead bullets around a tungsten core

Just drill a hole in it using a collet in your lathe, and press the
tungsten in. Also works with jacketed bullets.

Ive spent a fair bit of time making hollow points out of cast semi
wadcutters using a second ops lathe. Works well on coyotes and
bunnies.

If the bullet is of sufficient diameter..drilling and inserting a
starting pistol .22 blank can make an interesting projectile as well.
Or so its been said. I think I read it somewhere....thats it..read it.
